Tammy Adams: Employee of the Year <br />The City of La Porte is pleased to recognize Telecommunicator Tammy Adams as <br />the Employee of the Year for 2012. Tammy has been in the police department for <br />over sixteen years 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 <br />from a mother who had found her child unresponsive in the swimming pool. <br />Tammy was able to calm the hysterical mother and give her clear and concise CPR <br />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, <br />encouraging her during the emergency until help arrived. <br />The telecommunicators are an essential, and yet largely unseen, element of the <br />exceptional emergency services provided by the La Porte Fire, Police, and EMS <br />personnel. They are the first point of contact for all emergency calls for service <br />and their contributions do not go unnoticed. Therefore, it is my honor to recognize <br />Tammy Adams as Employee of the Year. <br /> <br />
