Chatham-Kent switches to new dispatch system Nov. 18

Emergency dispatchers in Chatham-Kent will soon ask more detailed questions when residents call 911. Chatham-Kent Emergency Medical Services will move to a new dispatch system Nov. 18. The move to the medical priority dispatch system is required by the province and will follow changes by Essex-Windsor EMS this month and Middlesex-London Paramedic Services in October. “The calling of 911 does not change for any resident throughout the municipality,” Matthew Gaudette, Chatham-Kent EMS
