A couple of weeks ago, Annie got word from the higher ups at her work that she won an award for a police dispatch incident that she handled in 2006. This was a total surprise and completely unexpected news to us.
911 dispatchers have their own national accrediting organization called APCO/NENA. The Oregon chapter held an awards banquet and dinner on 09.12.07 in Welches, OR at 'The Resort' to hand out achievement awards to dispatchers and call takers all over the state for various incidents handled over the last year.
Annie won a State Critical Incident Award for an incident that occurred on June 30, 2006. She won one of the three awards for critical incidents handed out and was the only recipient to receive the award on an individual basis. She received a nice certificate and a medal. It was a great night and a fun event to attend. It is nice to be recognized (so Kathy if you are reading this, thanks for being a kick ass ERC member and submitting my info ;o) ).
