Our speaker was T. J. Hutton a paramedic with the 911 ambulance response team for Framingham. He is in a supervisory position and discussed the procedure after a 911 call. The providers are under contract with the city and work with the police and fire departments.
There are 4 ambulances at the main fire station and one at the Main Street location (route 9 overpass area). EMTs work 24 hour shifts.
If you dial 9-1-1, the call is answered by the Framingham Police and then, if appropriate, the information is fed to the Weymouth headquarters of the responder to dispatch the ambulance.
Our Fire Department is a part of a mutual aid group of local communities.
