Telecommunicators

For many people in our community, they're nameless, faceless voices.  Some of us are lucky enough never to have to talk to them.  But when we need them, they're always there.  These voices calmly extract information from people suddenly turned upside down.  These voices ensure that help arrives quickly.  They are the unsung heroes behind all emergency responders.  These dedicated professionals are on hand twenty-four hours daily to ensure that any emergency or crisis is quickly dispatched.  Every day they calmly and professionally ensure that help is on the way.
