Today is Administrative Professionals day so we would like to highlight Anna, our fiscal coordinator. As part of her job, she ensures payroll is completed, our invoices get paid and everything gets reconciled.

DCEMS had the privilege of participating in a touch a truck at Big Walnut Local Schools Harrison St Elementary yesterday. In attendance were medics 2 & 11, as well as members of our bike team and our Kubota UTV for everyone to see. This was part of the 100th anniversary of Harrison St Elementary and we’re happy we got to be part of the celebration.
Also… if you look at the 5th picture you’ll see eagle mascots don’t fit in our cars.
This week marks National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week.
Public safety telecommunicators have the difficult job of answering phone calls in the most acute moments of an emergency, obtaining what happened and who needs to respond, and even giving instructions during chaotic scenes to aid those in need until help arrives. They are truly skilled professionals and people who make modern EMS possible.
We thank all public safety telecommunicators, especially our partners from @delcomm911 , for their invaluable skills, this and every week of the year.
