Countless 9-1-1 calls each year prompt the deployment of emergency vehicle responses on our nation’s roadways. This webinar explores both the critical role of 9-1-1 services in highway safety and the specific, strategic ways 9-1-1 centers can enhance highway safety systems to save lives. Discussion will focus on how 9-1-1 professionals can in improve outcomes of roadway emergencies through the use of call-taking protocols, traffic incident management, and emerging medical interventions and telemetry software. Attend this webinar to learn: 

  • Specific ways in which 9-1-1 centers support all aspects of a Safe System Approach on our roads;
  • The benefits of training telecommunicators in detailed protocol systems for all emergency call types, using resources including NENA standards; and 
  • The benefits of training telecommunicators in traffic incident management to prevent secondary crashes and improve field responder safety.
