HB1697 requires all 9-1-1 telecommunicators in Illinois to be trained in high-quality telecommunicator cardiopulmonary resuscitation (T-CPR) and emergency cardiovascular care guidelines. The Office of the Statewide 9-1-1 Administrator must establish guidelines and standards for this training, which must be completed within one year of the guidelines being set. Additionally, the bill mandates that telecommunicators complete training on handling sexual assault or sexual abuse calls, with existing telecommunicators having two years to complete this training.
