Keeping Members Safe After the Holidays: The Perfect Gift For Grandma. @Ooma #HolidayGiftGuide2016

During the winter holidays, emergency services see an increase in 911 calls, which sometimes lead to our loved ones being taken to the hospital. It's important to know when a family member has called 911—and the only way for that to happen is if their home phone service provider notifies you.
