MACOMB, IL — This week is National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week. Emmet – Chalmers Firefighters want to recognize and say THANK YOU to the great dispatchers we depend on at the Macomb/McDonough County Communications Center.
Public Safety Dispatchers are an important part of emergency services; when there is an emergency, it all begins with them.
