Schools - Colleges - Institutions
Many schools
have multiple buildings. Sharing phone service between faculties is
a
common practice, it is economical, and promotes good communication.
The centralizing of telephone services means better sharing of all
outside lines, however, it creates difficulties for any type of
direct correlation between the
telephone line and the location of
the phone extension (or user). The
phones distributed through-out the facility are just extensions on
the telephone system. When 911 is dialed the only location
information most often given by the telephone provider is the
location of the building of the telephone switch.
THE PROBLEM: If your telephone
system spans multiple buildings, this usually
provides the wrong address to 911. One way telephone
system
providers have been solving the multi-building dilemma, is to
install one dedicated line (that has its own 911 address) in each
different building, and force the first call to 911 out over that
trunk. At best this does give the correct building address for the
first caller to 911. Many times when an accident happens multiple
calls are made to 911. In this scenario, the additional calls
would be routed to the normal trunks within your system and give
the wrong location information. This is confusing for 911
operators and can lead to emergency personnel being sent to the
wrong address.
THE SOLUTION:
Using new hardware technology
and creative software, 911ai.com has found a solution to this
problem.
The 911ai.com service allows complete information on a per
phone basis. Descriptions may include address, building number, the floor,
room number,
usage, or any hazardous material nearby. The information
allows for emergency personnel to
arrive quicker to their destination and be better prepared for what
they may find. There are so many reasons that 911 calls are made
and then the caller is unable to convey the proper information as
to their location. Many times they just don't know! The
information you provide on each phone takes the guess work out of
the location and can be used to help verify information with the
caller. You will also have the assurance the
information is displayed the way you want, because you enter and
maintain the information yourself, all by the web.
Receive instant notification when 911 is dialed
Any user of the 911ai service may set up notifications. A
notification is either sending an email, a digital page, or a cell
phone txt message that one of your listed numbers has dialed 911. You will be supplied the phone number that
dialed 911, and some of the ai
information, like exact location, name etc. The greatest benefit
of this feature is you will know when a 911 call is being placed.
The notification information can be changed any time via the web
page interface. Business accounts can have up to 26 different
notifications. Different buildings may want different people
notified, or possibly some people will want to be notified on all 911
calls. The notification scheme is very flexible and can easily be
tailored to individual needs.
The
information can be changed as often as you like, just log into the
database and edit your facts under
“Manage” account, it’s that easy.
