This National Telecommunications Week, we honor the voices behind the chaos. In moments of crisis, dispatchers are the calm voice on the other end of the line, guiding first responders, offering reassurance and making split-second decisions that save lives. Their work is the vital first link in the chain of emergency response and trauma care.

Thank you to all members of the Memorial Hermann Life Flight® dispatch team and dispatch personnel in the greater Houston area for being the lifeline in every emergency.
