Last week, Chief Jim Wishlove recognized E-Comm Fire Dispatch: Team 1 for the demonstration of effective teamwork, innovation, communications, and support of Richmond Fire-Rescue response crews during the night of January 16-17, when record-breaking cold weather wreaked havoc across the lower mainland, including the City of Richmond.
Acting Charge Dispatcher Alexis Campbell, who was also recognized for demonstrating exemplary leadership, led Team 1 through and extremely busy night shift with focus, strength, and positivity—all while liaising with Chief Wishlove as fire crews responded to multiple calls for service, including frozen and bursting pipes and a large-scale gas leak.
Thank you to Acting Charge Dispatcher Alexis Campbell and Fire Dispatch Team 1 for working tirelessly with determination and efficiency to support fire crews and public safety in the City of Richmond.
