In the U.S., You Dial 911. In India, Your Family Dials 1800 2021 247

Follow & Share

Living in the United States comes with many advantages, but for NRIs, one worry never goes away: caring for parents and elderly family members back home in India. In the U.S., emergencies are simple — you dial 911, and professional help is on the way.

India, however, does not have a single, centralized emergency number. Ambulance services use 108, police emergencies require 100, and fire services use 101. Response times can vary, and navigating multiple numbers during a crisis can be confusing and stressful.

For NRIs, this creates a critical gap: who will help your parents in a medical emergency, and how will you stay informed while being thousands of miles away?

This is where Care247 and its toll-free number 1800 2021 247 become indispensable. With a single call, your family in India gets emergency medical support, hospital coordination, verified home nursing, and real-time updates, directly delivered to you in the U.S.

Why NRIs Need Healthcare Support for Parents in India

Every NRI faces the same late-night worry:
“What happens if my parents need urgent medical care while I’m asleep or at work in the U.S.?”

Challenges include:

  • No single 911-type number in India – Multiple numbers exist but lack central coordination.
  • Delays in ambulance or hospital admission – Critical minutes can be lost figuring out the right contact.
  • Dependence on neighbors or relatives – Not everyone is available or equipped to handle emergencies.
  • No reliable real-time updates – Leaving you anxious and out of the loop during critical moments.
