They take care of us, how can we take better care of them?
When it comes to ensuring our well-being in an emergency, call handlers and emergency dispatchers are the first ones to respond to our call. They do a great work in a job that can be as fulfilling as it is challenging from a human point view.
At EENA Conference, we want to recognise their invaluable efforts and special circumstances with two sessions on Thursday 11 April:
– Quality assurance & call-takers’ and dispatchers training: preparation and performance pre-determine the quality and ultimate effectiveness of potentially lifesaving services. Operations professionals share with us how to follow up and reinforce procedures in the emergency response centres.
– Call takers’ and dispatchers’ wellness: they develop a stressful job and conditions are not always perfect, join experts from emergency services to learn about initiatives that can help them to feel better every day!
