My Training:: EMT, EMD Dispatcher, Trainer, Lead Supervisor, Dispatch for Police, Fire, Rescue, Animal Control & Sheriffs Dept.

Why I Joined Fire/EMS: I originally applied to the 911 center, because I thought I would eventually apply to be a police officer, but by the time I was 21 yoa I realized I was loving being a dispatcher and making the same money not to be shot at or spit on, so I stayed.

Top Issues Facing Responders:: Safety. Too much emphasis placed on policy vs common sense. Constantly changing policies leave personnel wondering if they have something right and/or second guessing themselves.

Anyway, I do remember hearing the hollowness in the voices of our dispatchers here. I could tell some were just barely holding it together. I have a lot of respect for you dispatchers. You may not be in the front lines, but you do provide a very important service. Don't let anyone tell you different. Stay safe & sane!
