From Capes to Aprons - Missy Birnell Haston - Bog

From Capes to Aprons is a collection of short stories from the dispatchers who actually took these sometimes bizarre, funny and very disturbing 911 calls. Because of the high stress of this job, dispatchers and emergency service personnel can turn to food for comfort, along with having each other to talk out our stressful calls. My book includes stories and recipes from real 911 dispatchers with some bonus stories of a retired police officer and retired firefighter. Communication centers across the country operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Dispatchers stand ready to receive calls from citizens, visitors, and anyone needing some form of assistance. Whether it''s for simple information or a life-threatening traumatic emergency situation, they handle them all. Dispatchers in Hamilton County are highly trained professionals who operate complex 800-megahertz radio technology systems - allowing them to maintain critical communications with every emergency responder in the county and surrounding counties.
