In addition to the New Castle Police patrols that respond to all alarm calls in town, any of the local volunteer emergency services may also respond based on the nature and location of the alarm.
Fire Alarms are investigated by the Chappaqua Fire Department, Millwood Fire Company or Mount Kisco Fire Department
Emergency Medical Alarms are investigated by the Chappaqua Volunteer Ambulance Corps, Mount Kisco Lions Ambulance Corps or Ossining Volunteer Ambulance Corps
New Castle Police patrols respond to fire and medical alarms as well as burglary, panic, hold-up, high water ,sprinkler, low temperature, or any other type of alarm reported by your central station
While the Police Department is a full time paid agency which maintains 24 hour patrols in the town, the other emergency services are all volunteer.  Volunteers may be standing by in quarters as is the policy for the Ossining Volunteer Ambulance Corps or on call by radio pager. These volunteers respond from their homes and businesses, taking time out of their busy lives to answer your alarm's call for help. A problem alarm system that generates many false alarms creates a strain on both the police and volunteer services. Please try some of the alarm system tips to prevent your system from
"crying wolf"
