The Central Records 911 Administrator’s primary responsibility of this position is to manage and process 911-related requests from the 911 mailbox daily, specifically for the Houston Emergency Center (HEC) and the Houston Police Department (HPD). There is a great emphasis on accuracy and an attention to detail that is required, while completing this task. Duties include screening original CAD (Computer-Aided Dispatch) reports for sub-reports that may contain 911 audio and retrieving CAD reports via the HECRSS Application.

The 911 Administrator would be required to review actual 911 calls, which may be emotionally difficult, using NICE Inform to verify their relevance to each request.

You will also search for any missing audio by utilizing phone numbers in NICE and HECRSS, upload CAD reports and 911 audio files to their corresponding case profiles, and update the status of each request to inform the requestor of completion. Responsibilities also include managing 911 Juvenile Requests, coordinating with DA staff for additional incident requests, identifying and pulling Text Chats, and troubleshooting problematic requests using various applications.
