Recently Moody County EMS and one of our local fire departments were dispatched to an emergency call. I am purposely making this post vague to respect the patient's privacy, HIPPA, and PHI.

This patient was experiencing a critical emergency where time was of the essence. Unfortunately, dispatch wasn't initially notified. Several witnesses/bystanders called fire department personnel directly instead of calling 911. This delayed the response of the ambulance and the fire department involved.

Please don't do this. If you need us or the fire department, call 911 or the non-emergency number of 605-997-2423. It's easier for the first responders to get information if it's coming from one source (dispatch). Dispatch will get the information out from the caller to the agencies that need it. Help us help you. Thanks. -WH
