Safety Telecommunicators Week
Today's
helpful hint from the Logan County Dispatch comes from
telecommunicator Sarah Combs.
|
Sarah Combs |
“Did you
know...
"Not only does Logan Dispatch handle 911 calls
in Logan County, but we also handle all
non-emergency calls. A small list of examples of
non-emergency calls is loose or stray animals,
setting up standbys to retrieve belongings and
debris in the roadway. Remember, dialing 911
should be used in an emergency. Calling local
numbers for non-emergency events keeps the 911
lines available for emergencies. For
non-emergency incidents in the city of Lincoln,
you can call 217-732-2151. For non-emergency
incidents out in the county, you can call
217-732-4159. Also, have patience and listen to
the phone tree. You could reach the appropriate
person you need to speak with without ever
having to connect with Logan Dispatch." |
