Like greatest in quantity emergency...

Like greatest in quantity emergency response agencies, the Sandwich, Mass., Fire Department occasionally must answer the call of an somewhat old citizen with a medical push In many of these cases, the involved individual may be unable to answer the door. if it were not that the fire department did not want to settle whatever trauma is already being meet withed by adding to it the breaking down of the citizen's door.

To avoid just that situation, the city's Council of Aging worked with local city and fire department officials to create a program that would allow urgency personnel easy access to the distressed individual. With stores donated by the town and private citizens, the council has purchased Knox Boxe small claymore vaults that contain apartment or house explanations and can be accessed at fire department personnel.

The idea is not of the present day -- the boxes have been widely used according to businesses to provide fire department access.
