This being National Telecommunicators Week, I’ve been spending some time online reading about the exploits of those who toil anonymously, passionately, and tirelessly in our nation’s 911 centers.
For quite a long time, 911 centers have been focused on dealing with staffing issues. They exist virtually everywhere, in large centers and small and in every geographic region.
Next Generation 911 (NG911) system implementation is progressing across the United States, though at a much slower pace than was envisioned when this game-changing technology first was contemplated a couple of decades ago.
There are many things of which we’re proud, starting with our collective ability to transform emergency-response and justice outcomes throughout the decade and a half that MCP has existed.
Previous blogs (part 1 and part 2) shared what was learned by MCP subject-matter experts during the recent National Emergency Number Association (NENA) conference and trade show. This blog wraps up our coverage.
A previous blog shared some of what was learned by MCP subject-matter experts during the recent National Emergency Number Association (NENA) conference and trade show. Here are a few more snippets:
I recently was asked by one of our clients, the Nevada Department of Public Safety (DPS), to speak on its behalf at 5 x 5: The Public Safety Innovations Summit, a three-day conferencepresented by the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST).
As usual, MCP subject-matter experts blanketed last week’s National Emergency Number Association (NENA) conference and trade show. The following represents some of what they learned.
In a previous post, we shared key observations of MCP subject-matter experts who recently attended the International Wireless Communications Expositions (IWCE). Here are a few more.
In a recent blog, my colleague Phil Rizzo made a strong case for 911 center diversity and suggested several ways to achieve it. His thoughts are based on the truism that network and system outages,
How many botched light-pole installations does it take to cause 911 service interruptions across multiple states? This sounds like the beginning of a joke,
As a former 911 telecommunicator, this week, National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, always has been special to me. Though I recently transitioned from a role inside an emergency communications center (ECC), 911 services always will hold a big place in my heart. Since 911 service in the United States first was instituted in 1968, telecommunicators generally have labored behind the curtain and this week provides them with well-deserved visibility, which also is much needed.
