National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week - 2023 |
By Public Information Office | |
April 9, 2023 | |
Today marks the beginning of National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week 2023. Telecommunicators or dispatchers are the ones who answer your 911 calls day and night, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. BHFD also has a very strong relationship with the Town of Bedford Police, and its Communications Division. Most emergency calls and especially landline based 911 calls in the Town of Bedford are first answered and processed by the Officer and Dispatchers of BPD, before being transferred to the appropriate agency. The Bedford Hills Fire Department currently has five members who are Public Safety Communicators, and several who have done so as previous careers.
