Station 53/Squad 153 and Hopewell Valley Emergency Services Station 50/Squad 159 now use a web based software that is activated when a call for service is received. Members of UFCRS will then call a 1-800 number given to our department by IAmResponding. Upon calling responding members can choose up to 9 options that alert people at the station where the member is responding to. Once calling, a screen displayed in our main bay displays when the member called, their estimated time to get to their location, where they are responding to, and their position.
It helps us know if we have to page additional personnel to get our rigs out in a more timely fashion. Since IAmResponding was put in we have not "scratched" a call.
