Today kicks off National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week. I want to convey my appreciation to the dedicated professionals across America who answer our 911 calls and provide life-saving assistance each and every day. They are the often-unsung heroes of #publicsafety. #NPSTW

Thank you to the 911 dispatcher who managed this call, the Fire Rescue team who responded, and to Michael Bochniarz for sharing his story. Honored to have played a part in this rescue. #ClearinghouseSuccessStories @PinellasEM

Lucky to be alive! A Pinellas County fisherman says new technology, a caring 911 dispatcher and quick paramedics are the reason he's alive today.

What are your agency’s 911 hang up call policies?
My Apple Watch accidentally called 911 as I was biking home from the grocery store! Between street noise & unfamiliarity w the watch noise, I had no idea what was going on until @ReadyArlington 911 operators called me back to make sure I was ok! #bikedc #embarrassing
