If you have a key hidden outside, or keyless entry, contact your local First Responders to find out how to record this info so when your address comes up with dispatch they know how to enter your home easily.

Hope you never have to use this info!
Good advice. I will add if you have an Apple Watch it will call automatically,, without you having to push anything, if it detects a fall. I find my watch often detects falls that didn't happen. But, it simply asks, did you fall? Are you okay? If I don't respond in a short amount of time it calls 911.
