E-Comm 911
E-Comm is the largest 9-1-1 call centre in B.C., providing dispatch services for more than 70 police and fire departments and owns and operates the regional emergency radio communications system.
This is Madison. She’s been working at E-Comm for 2 years and says we’re here to get you help as fast as possible. Her advice to the public is to “give as much and as detailed/accurate information as you can. And remember, 9-1-1 is for in-progress crimes or life-or-death emergencies only.”
Madison’s favourite part of being a police call taker is “knowing that I'm working hard for the safety and well-being of friends, family and everyone else - this makes the job really rewarding.” #ThankYou #911BC
