Hello all,
I am looking for some insight as to why you believe the Communications profession is having such a difficult time hiring qualified personnel and retaining them. I have a list of questions if you would please take a moment to fill it out it would be greatly appreciated!
1) Agency name / dispatch for law, fire, medical, animal control, etc.
2) How many openings do you have?
3) What do you believe the cause is?
4) What do you think can be done to assist with the shortages?
My agency is currently 14 down and it appears to be a regional issue in Central Florida however I am hearing that there are some other parts of the state that are not dealing with this epidemic. I am hopeful to get some great feedback that I will be more than willing to share with everyone.
Thanks,
Modesty Adams
