Emergency Medical Dispatcher experience requirements
In order to work as an Emergency Medical Dispatcher, candidates must have work experience as an Emergency Call Handler. The role of Emergency Call Handler is similar to that of the Emergency Medical Dispatcher in that the Emergency Call Handler answers 999 calls and records the information provided by the caller. However, the Emergency Medical Handler then passes the information to the Emergency Medical Dispatcher who makes the final decision on what type of emergency response is needed for the caller.
Experience in a call centre or other customer support or healthcare role is a plus.
