Many 911 organizations around the country are working with empty seats as job postings go unfilled, and remaining staff face the stress of mandatory overtime and burnout. As a result, agencies are seeing turnover rates of 30% or <u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ajc.com\/news\/incentives-part-of-plan-to-attract-retain-911-dispatchers-amid-high-turnover\/J4KFM6YU5NEIXCOPKJDDOMHC24\/\">higher<\/a><\/u>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]When PowerPhone was started 40 years ago, it was based upon a dedication to giving telecommunicators the training and tools they needed to succeed as the first-first responders. Here are seven ways we\u2019ve learned over the years to give emergency call takers the skills and confidence they need to take the call.[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;25&#8243;][vc_column_text]\n<h4><span style=\"color: #00529b;\"><strong>1.

The key is having a program that can be flexible, since no two 911 calls are exactly the same. Winging it without protocols can lead to too little or unnecessary information being collected; too rigid a system requires asking needless and redundant questions and delaying dispatch. From a stress reduction standpoint, it is exactly what the call taker needs: the ability to respond as rapidly as possible with software that supports their processes.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;15&#8243;][vc_column_text]\n<h4><strong><span style=\"color: #00529b;\">2. Integrated Call Handling for ALL Calls<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Switching between applications means seconds lost. This is why Total Response provides immediate access to Police, Fire, and EMS protocols from a single, integrated, user-friendly tool. This makes it faster and easier for a call taker to gather the information required to make a dispatching decision, while continuing to collect information to share with on-scene responders enroute.<\/p>\n<p>The dynamic situations telecommunicators face has become increasingly complicated. It is essential to have one tool to guide their information gathering to support more accurate dispatch decisions. A call that might begin as a medical emergency could quickly escalate. For instance, a person lying face down initially appears to be an EMS call. Upon further discovery, the bullets in the chest indicate this is crime scene and law enforcement needs to be dispatched.<\/p>\n<p>Giving the call taker the freedom to easily work within a single, integrated software helps them to perform at a higher level, reducing the stress of dealing with complicated scenarios.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; column_element_direction_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; desktop_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_backdrop_filter=&#8221;none&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_position=&#8221;default&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<h4><span style=\"color: #00529b;\"><strong>3. Immediate Access to Life-Saving Tools<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>There\u2019s plenty of stress for the call taker when the call is: \u201cHelp!

Celebrate Their Victories<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>This next tip is more in the hands of call center supervisors. One of the frustrations of 911 telecommunicators is when they excel in being that first-first responder, they rarely hear about how their efforts helped. Call center supervisors are in a good position to do selective follow-up calls to on-scene responders, or to research the final reports. If a telecommunicator guided someone through CPR, did the person survive? If the call taker told someone how to apply direct pressure to a bleed, did this give EMS time to save a life? Was there a happy ending for situations where the call taker was with someone through trauma or despair? You get the idea. Go searching for good news, and then celebrate the telecommunicator\u2019s victory. Let them know that you appreciate what they are doing. Let them see the difference they\u2019ve made in another person\u2019s life.[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;15&#8243;][vc_column_text]\n<h4><span style=\"color: #00529b;\"><strong>7. Provide Resources for PTSD<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Researchers have found that 911 call takers can suffer PTSD from a singular traumatic call, or from the cumulative toll of dealing with so many calls from people in distress. Call center managers can reduce stress and enhance employee retention by monitoring their call takers for signs of PTSD and checking in with them after exceptionally stressful calls. Some centers have a quiet room where telecommunicators can decompress after a hard call. Others work to ensure that telecommunicators have free and easy access to mental health specialists on an as-needed basis.
