Raleigh/Wake County (NC) EMS Medical Priority Codes

Raleigh/Wake County (NC) EMS Medical Priority Codes

Raleigh & Wake County Fire Departments Emergency Fire Dispatch (EFD) Codes

The Raleigh Wake Emergency Communications Center transitioned to the Emergency Fire Dispatch (EFD) on June 7, 2011 at 08:00. This transition affects how calls are dispatched to both the Raleigh Fire Department and also the Volunteer Fire Departments that operate in Wake County. This program is the fire service version of Emergency Medical Dispatch (EMD) which has been in place for many years.

The EFD program is a protocol based system that is used to process fire calls to determine the most appropriate response.

The most obvious and important change for fire service personnel in the field is that responders will hear a standardized short text description of an emergency and an alphanumeric determinant for the call type.

Example: Brush Fire 67-Delta-2.
