The work of Durham’s Emergency Communications Center, better known as 9-1-1, is critical. How quickly a call is answered, the information they provide, as well as the information the caller provides, can mean the difference between life and death. In this CityLife episode, host Beverly Thompson talks with Randy Beeman, Emergency Communications Center Director, and Assistant Director Tangela Walker, to talk about the work of the center and what its staff is doing every day to ensure that Durham is a safe and secure community.
