Alarm Registration

If your home or business is equipped with a Burglar, Fire, or Hold-up alarm, you are required to register your alarm with the Police Department. There is no charge for the registration. Forms may be obtained at Police Headquarters or via mail upon request.

A.E.D. (Automated Electronic Defibrillator)

The River Edge Police Department has four A.E.D. units which are carried in the patrol cars of on-duty officers. All patrol officers have passed a training course in the use of the A.E.D. The units can many times mean the difference between life and death for a heart attack victim. With police officers often being the first emergency personnel on the scene, it allows a defibrillator to be used within the first few minutes after the victim has suffered a heart attack. This is the time frame when defibrillation is most effective.
