Recommendation for emergency calls

7/10/2024

The Town of Jerome Town Council and Public Safety (Police and Fire) recommend all residents, employees and visitors who use cell phones to program in the local police and fire dispatch number into their cell phone and use that when calling in an emergency or non-emergency situation from a cell phone.  The phone number for that, which will provide the most expeditious response is: (928) 634-2245.  This is a 24-hour line that rings directly to the Town’s dispatch center and will not be hindered by cell phone routing delays like 911 is.  Please note that this recommendation is for cell phone users only.  Hard wired lines should still dial 911 in case of emergency or the local dispatch number above for non-emergency situations.
