Forum Supports Our Military!
Here is a big salute to Forum’s own Walter Parker who is traveling up and down North America this month, working with Army and Air Force bases to replace their outdated Primary and Secondary Crash communications systems. From the initial needs assessment and engineering calls to pre-installation meetings, Forum’s team works with our dealer partners, and military and civilian customers to match the perfect technology to your emergency communications needs.
Forum salutes the men and women of our country who serve in the Armed Forces. We do our part by providing reliable support and service to our military communications services.
SPOTLIGHT ON WALTER PARKER:
Walter has played a key role in Forum’s Telephone Tech Support and QA teams for many years. Congratulations to Walter on his expanded role as Senior Field Engineer. In charge of installation and training for the Confer ALERT Plus systems, Walter also works closely with Forum’s sales and product design specialists.
Test Calls to Local/State Governments:
"This is a test of the BLAST-911 Emergency System. If this were a real emergency, BLAST-911 would call your home, office and cell phones WHILE sending emergency details via text and email.
"BLAST-911 can connect your response team into one conference call to improve cooperation, OR to provide emergency instructions to thousands in your area. For more information, call Forum Communications at 972-619-8601 and ask about BLAST-911!"
Forum is utilizing our Sympozium Enhanced Messaging Server to deliver product information to local government agencies. The Sympozium can be used to initiate reminder calls for local meetings, price programs and upcoming deadlines to build your business. Whether you need to manage a response to an emergency, or create a pro-active response to business opportunities, Forum Communications has an affordable solution.
Disaster Divas!
Hats off to a group of silver-haired seniors from Silverglen condominium complex in Bellevue Washington! Awarded the “Partners In Preparedness” award from the International Association of Emergency Managers in 2004, the group works with the city’s emergency education office to train in first aid, emergency utility shutoff and preliminary search and rescue.
Nationwide, the emphasis on volunteer first responders is growing.
These young-at-heart responders (both men and women) stay ready
for a major disaster like an earthquake or chemical spill with regular
drills and exercises. They also put their skills to use assisting
in daily medical emergencies in their community. For information
on joining or developing volunteer programs in your community, contact
your local city or county outreach office, local hospital or church
group.
