911 Communications System and Public Safety

Campbell County Department of Public Safety serves to provide animal control, emergency medical services, fire suppression and prevention, emergency management and preparedness, and E-911 services to residents.  

An enhanced 9-1-1 emergency communications system allows computer tracking of citizen calls and assists in accurate dispatching and response of fire, rescue and law enforcement agencies. The E-911 system also allows for the utilization of emergency medical dispatching (EMD), where a communications officer may provide basic medical instructions to a 9-1-1 caller in order to assist a sick or injured person.
