Thank you!

Every emergency begins with a voice on the other end of the line.

During Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, we recognize our partners at Wayne County Emergency Communications, the FIRST first responders.

They are the unseen heroes who answer the call when it matters most, bringing calm to chaos and ensuring help is on the way.

Thank you for all you do!

“Why is the fire department here? I called for an ambulance…”

In many emergencies, fire departments are dispatched as first responders alongside EMS. This means they may arrive before the ambulance.

Why?
🚒 They are often closer to your location
⏱️ They can start care immediately
🚑 They help ensure you get the fastest possible response

Even though you called for an ambulance, sending the closest available help can make a critical difference.

We work as a team to get help to you as quickly as possible.

This week, we hosted three separate training sessions with our volunteer fire agencies to ensure they’re prepared for improved radio communications in the coming months.

Strong communication saves time — and lives.

Thank you to our assisting partners, Integrated Public Safety Commission - Indiana, Wayne County Emergency Management Agency , Ritter Strategic Services, and J&K Communications, Inc. for their support and collaboration in making these trainings possible.

At 9:00 PM on January 24, 2026, the Wayne County Board of Commissioners declared a Level II Snow Emergency (Travel Watch) for Wayne County, including the City of Richmond and the Town of Centerville. This declaration will remain in effect until 12:00 PM on January 26, 2026, unless extended by the Board of Commissioners.
