Quick actions in FEMA-inspired colors
Each option opens a focused form. Swap the emojis and colors later when your real assets are ready.
For people trapped, injured, or in immediate physical danger from rising water, landslide risk, or wind damage.
For food, water, shelter, medicine, baby items, and other essential supplies once immediate danger is under control.
For reporting missing people or locating family members, neighbours, or colleagues after evacuations or outages.
For non-life-threatening but critical infrastructure issues slowing response (power, mobile towers, roads, bridges).
Routes are already wired: /rescue, /relief, /missing, /infra. Replace copy, colors, and imagery when final branding is available.
How it works
Straightforward steps that keep the call short but actionable.
Step 1
1. Identify the Caller & Assess Urgency
- Confirm who is calling and whether they are the person directly affected.
- Capture a callback number in case the call drops.
- Quickly assess the level of immediate danger (injuries, rising water, trapped individuals).
- Note any language needs to connect them with the right support team.
Step 2
2. Pinpoint the Exact Location
- Record the district, town/village, and the nearest main road or landmark.
- Ask for GPS location if the device supports it.
- Let the caller know they can send photos later to help responders verify conditions.
Step 3
3. Collect Only Essential Information
- Keep questions short and focused, especially during peak call congestion.
- Ask only what is required to dispatch support or verify the situation.
- Gather additional details later once the immediate risk is understood and managed.
