What to do in an urgent safety situation

If anyone is in immediate danger, contact the appropriate local emergency services or authority first. GuideMeet is not an emergency-response, rescue, medical or law-enforcement service.

When it is safe:

  1. Move away from the immediate risk if you can.
  2. Contact local emergency, rescue, medical or law-enforcement services appropriate to the situation.
  3. Tell a trusted person or local operator where you are.
  4. Preserve relevant GuideMeet messages or records without putting yourself at further risk.
  5. Submit a GuideMeet report and mark the immediate-safety question accurately.
  6. Block further contact if that makes you safer.

Do not delay emergency contact while waiting for GuideMeet. Do not hard-code one country’s number into a global article. Localized versions may display verified numbers with jurisdiction and review dates.
