DISPATCH STAFF
The dispatcher plays the lead role in a smoothly operating ambulance communications system. The dispatchers at American Professional Ambulance are all dedicated, highly trained technicians, responding instantly to all requests for emergency transportation. All of our dispatchers are Emergency Medical Technicians, Emergency Medical Dispatchers, and CPR certified. Each is required to complete a minimum of one-year field experience prior to holding a dispatch position. This experience allows the dispatcher to understand the pre-hospital emergency medical system, and the needs of EMTs, paramedics and hospital medical personnel.
