Additional Resources

The first person to confirm on-scene is marked by Beacon as the Incident Commander and is asked to determine if Additional Resources are needed.

All other responders who confirm on-scene after the Incident Commander will skip this step and either be asked to Confirm Transport or Complete the Incident

Workflow Message 4: Request Additional Resources

  1. Request Additional Resources — is the fourth workflow message and will only be received by the responder that first marked arrival On-Scene; all other responders involved in the incident will not be shown this message and skip directly to the next
  2. Response Prompt — Workflow Message 4 is asking the responder to asses if Additional Resources are needed for this incident
  3. Assign additional Resources — Press it to display a list of available responders from which to pick and individually send an alert
    • To assign specific responders as additional resources check the box of the available responder you wish to assign and click OK. The responder then will be notified.
  4. Chat with Dispatch — Pressing it will redirect to the incident chat where dispatchers and other assigned responders can help decide and coordinate what is needed
  5. Skip — If no additional resources are needed you can press the Skip button to advance to the next workflow message
