A system and method for signaling emergency responses. A mobile device receives proximity location information from at least one location identification beacon. A user of the mobile device dials an emergency telephone number when an emergency occurs. Dialing the emergency telephone number enables the proximity location information to be transmitted to an emergency call center. Upon receipt of the proximity location information by the emergency call center, a globally unique identifier within the proximity location information is extracted and mapped to a database to obtain a precise location of the emergency, thereby enabling a dispatcher to better instruct an emergency response team as to the location of the emergency without requiring the user to provide the location.
