The “Yellow Dot” program is the first program of its kind in the state of Alabama. It is designed to assist Alabama citizens and first responders in the event of an automobile crash or other medical emergency involving the participant’s vehicle. The program can help save lives during the critical “golden hour” by improving communication at a time when accident victims may be unable to communicate for themselves.

Carol Merkel is working with the Mobile County Sheriff’s office to promote this  program.  She is available to speak to groups about the  “Yellow Dot” program and can be reached at 251-861-3333.
