The Emergency Services Network & Organization


Most people think of emergency services as Fire Departments, Law Enforcement Agencies and Emergency Medical Services.  The bulk of 9-1-1 response is centered around requests for these services, but there are many more.  Below is a table indicating the different emergency response agencies.  Please note that this is a general overview of the service providers for non-emergency contact.  If you need more specific information please call Orange County Emergency Services at (919) 245-6100.

In an emergency call 9-1-1.
