Abstract

A method for requesting and dispatching emergency services to a wireless communications network customer (102) is provided. When a request for emergency services is transmitted by a customer (102), the request is sent to a monitoring center (108), whereupon the monitoring center (108) evaluates the location of the customer (102), the personal profile of the customer (102), and the nature of the request. The monitoring center (108) then issues an appropriate dispatch to a pool of emergency services providers (110).
