The Ohio 9-1-1 Program Office coordinates and facilitates communication concerning 9-1-1 issues among state, federal, regional and local 9-1-1 and public safety communications officials. Specifically, the office coordinates all Emergency Services Internet Protocol Network (ESINet) Steering Committee activities to facilitate Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG 9-1-1) state level efforts within the scope of wireless 9-1-1. The implementation of NG 9-1-1 will provide citizens with advanced communication capabilities when calling for emergency services, including police, fire and emergency medical services. Additionally, through use of the ESINet, NG 9-1-1 will become a seamless, coordinated and efficient system available to all local 9-1-1 centers throughout Ohio.
PSAP Managers: For
any 9-1-1 service issues, please contact your service provider. If you
are having difficulty getting issues resolved, you may contact the Public
Utilities Commission of Ohio by emailing OutageReport@puc.state.oh.us.
The Ohio 9-1-1 Program Office would
like to take the opportunity to recognize Ohio's 9-1-1 professionals during
National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week. The dedication, hard-work
and exemplary efforts of Ohio's 9-1-1 telecommunicators sometimes goes
unnoticed and we would like to ensure you are recognized for your crucial and
lifesaving work.
Thank you to all 9-1-1
Professionals!
