CC:IPS publishes global recommendations for emergency services during COVID-19 outbreak

8th Apr 2020

The Collaborative Coalition for International Public Safety (CC:IPS) has published a document of global recommendations for emergency services organisations to help them respond and prepare in the best way possible during the COVID-19 outbreak.

The comprehensive document aims to share recommendations for best practices so that countries across the world can learn from each other during these difficult times. It focuses on important challenges which emergency services – including Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) – are or may soon be facing.

These challenges include preparing for an overflow of calls, introducing new helplines, ensuring appropriate care of control room staff and communicating effectively with the public about the outbreak.
