The Communications
Center
is the hub of all LIFE FORCE operations. Staffed by licensed EMTs
and paramedics who hold Certified Flight Communicator
designations, the Flight Communications Center provides
flight-following and coordination of air medical transport
operations. In addition to typical public safety
communications, capabilities of the Communications Center also
include satellite tracking of aircraft location, direction,
altitude and speed.
The
LIFE FORCE Communications Center serves as the Regional Medical
Communications Center for Southeast Tennessee. As the RMCC,
the center provides daily communications support to EMS services
transporting patients within the region, provides access to EMS
physician consultation and coordinates medical resources during a
disaster or mass casualty incident.
The communications center also provides support communications for the
Southeast Regional Critical Incident Stress Management Team.
