Employee of the Second Quarter <br /> <br />The City of La Porte is pleased to recognize Tammy Adams, telecommunicator in the police department, <br />as the Employee of the Second Quarter 2012. Tammy has been in the department for over sixteen years <br />and is a Certified Training Officer for the dispatch center. <br /> <br />On June 6, 2012, Tammy was working the evening shift and received a 911 call from a mother who had <br />found her child unresponsive in the swimming pool. Tammy was able to calm the hysterical mother and <br />give her clear and concise CPR instructions to save the child’s life. Tammy also sent the EMS/FIRE to the <br />mother’s location and Tammy remained on the phone with the mother, encouraging her during the <br />emergency until help arrived. <br /> <br />The telecommunicators are an essential, and yet largely unseen, piece of the exceptional emergency <br />services provided by the La Porte Fire, Police, and EMS personnel. They are the first point of contact for <br />all emergency calls for service and their contributions do not go unnoticed. Therefore, it is my honor to <br />recognize Tammy Adams as Employee of the Second Quarter. <br /> <br />
