National First Responders Day – 10/28/21

In 2020, a state law required all emergency call takers and dispatchers to receive telecommunicator cardiopulmonary resuscitation (T-CPR) training and offer it when necessary to callers or bystanders. So far, 572 telecommunicators have completed the TECB’s T-CPR online training for a grand total of 1,707 hours of delivered instruction. The T-CPR training is paying off. In 2021, dispatchers at the Wayne County 911 Center and the Meigs County 911 Centers provided lifesaving assistance to residents during critical incidents.

To all first responders, thank you. #FirstRespondersDay #leadership #firstresponders
