GHI On Call Emergencies

Calls considered an emergency are those which could result in damage to property (either GHI's or the member's), or which may result in danger to health or safety of a member.

The following list has been approved by the Board of Directors.  On-call employees will use professional judgment to identify whether other circumstances may constitute emergency scenarios.  To reduce costs to the cooperative, members are encouraged to only request services that are truly of an emergency nature.

GHI will strive to provide a prompt and professional response to all emergency requests.
