Download or read book What to Expect When Calling 911 written by C. R. Hartwell and published by . This book was released on 2017-11 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book containing the questions you will be asked. What does a 911 operator need?This book will guide the caller to look for specific information for each different type of 911 call.While it is important to remember that no two Public Safety Access Points or PSAPs are going to function exactly the same; the following is meant to instruct the caller on what information may be more important to the 911 operator and what may be asked when calling 911. One important thing to remember when calling 911 is to remain calm (if possible) and to answer the operator's questions. Many times when on a 911 call as an operator, I have been yelled at and told to "just send help and to stop asking dumb questions". The questions being asked may not seem important to you as a caller, but are very important to the operator and to the responding officers, firefighters, or medics. Try to keep in mind that we are the professionals, this may be your first or second time on a 911 call; however, the operator has been on literally thousands of 911 calls and knows what kind of information is more important to the safety of the caller.Another thing that would be good to remember about the 911 operator is that they are just a person, they are doing a job - a highly stressful job. A good operator is sure to keep personal opinion out of their questioning and many agencies have a script for each type of call that they receive.

Download or read book 9 1 1 WHAT IS YOUR EMERGENCY written by Lucia - Retired Dispatcher #160 and published by Author House. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains actual 911 and non-emergency calls that came into the San Diego Police Department Communications Division during my 19 years working as a Police 911 Dispatcher. This book represents the calls received as accurately as possible. I did not embellish them to make the calls funnier or more exciting. These are actual calls, often unbelievable, but they are real calls. This book is a way for me to portray the "real world" life of a 911 dispatcher. Some people may not understand why or how we can make light of some of the calls in this book. You may fall into that category making this book not your cup of tea. If however, you can approach this book with an open mind, and a light heart, you may gain a different perspective about 911 dispatchers then you had before. Of course, the bulk of calls coming in were true emergencies that would not be appropriate for this book. I chose mostly, the light hearted calls that would make you come away from the book with a smile, instead of a heavy heart. The Dark Side Chapter is the only chapter in this book with samples of the more serious, violent type of calls we get on a daily basis. Many of you may be amazed by the sub culture out there, and how they live on a day to day basis. Many of these calls may shock you, and have you scratching your head thinking....OMG really?!! I took my job very seriously, and would never willingly jeopardize the confidentiality, or privacy of anybody who asked for my help. Therefore, I did not use real personal names or addresses from any callers in this book without their consent. Any names or a personal address used in this book that may sound familiar is pure coincidence. I hope you enjoy this book.

Download or read book Tips from an Emergency Dispatcher written by Laura Smith and published by . This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a must read for anyone who might have to call 911 for help someday. You may believe that reporting an emergency is as simple as dialing 911, telling the dispatcher what the emergency is and where it is occurring, and then help will be sent without delay. The good news is, it does work that way most of the time; the bad news is, it doesn't always work that way. When there is miscommunication on the part of the caller, the dispatcher, or both, dire consequences can, and do, occur. This book will explain the important role the caller plays in relaying vital information to a dispatcher. This is explained through many practical and realistic examples, showing important "do's" and "don'ts". The reader will understand the best way to provide the dispatcher with the specific details of the emergency. You will also learn how to relay sensitive and relevant information that could make a big difference in the outcome of a call; everything from the quick apprehension of a suspect, to preventing further trauma to a victim, to increasing the safety of the officers. This book was written by a dispatcher with over 25 years of experience handling 911 calls. The goal of the book was to help the reader become more familiar with the 911 call taking process. You will learn what questions the dispatcher will ask, and why, and what you can do to ensure your call is quickly and properly prioritized. You will learn the best way to provide suspect, vehicle and weapon descriptions, and how to overcome some of the barriers in the communication process. There is also vital information everyone should know about the limitations of using a cell phone to call 911 during an emergency. Don't be caught off guard by the mistaken notion that the dispatcher will know exactly where you are calling from if you can't stay on the line for some reason, as this is not always the case. Reading this book well in advance of having to call 911 is the best way you can be prepared during an actual emergency situation.
