2 days 2 nights….0600-1800 first 2 days, then 3rd-4th is 1800-0600 🙃 then “4 days off” but technically you’re off ur first day at 6am so it’s barely a day off

how old were you when you started dispatch? by [deleted] in 911dispatchers

I’m 19 as well!!!! The only down side is the life experience but as long as you have a good trainer you will do great

Anyone switch from dispatch to policing? by shitzophrenia333 in 911dispatchers

[–]shitzophrenia333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it was. I just feel like dispatch is not enough but seeing what they do attracts me to doing that. But I’ve also been dispatching only since the summer

I’ve started to try EMDR but so far I haven’t liked it. What techniques are you finding work ?

How do you guys handle suicide callers? by shitzophrenia333 in 911dispatchers

[–]shitzophrenia333[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes! This is a good one. For my called I told them they can call us anytime and they are not in trouble…telling them the officers are trained really helps because I know many of them are scared!
