About TowerDIRECT

TowerDIRECT is a Wyomissing, PA–based non-profit organization devoted to coordinating and supporting emergency medical services for our community. While we operate behind the scenes—linking callers in crisis with appropriate care providers—our mission centers on one simple goal: to ensure every individual in need has access to prompt, professional, and compassionate emergency assistance.

Community Feedback & Commitment to Improvement

Every organization grows through honest feedback, and TowerDIRECT takes community voices seriously. Recent reviews have underscored areas where we must do better—particularly in our emergency response coordination. Some customers have shared painful accounts, saying that when our team arrived, they felt the situation worsened and that clear instructions were overlooked. We have heard those concerns loud and clear. In response, TowerDIRECT is reviewing every protocol, strengthening staff training, and refining our dispatch procedures so that patient safety and timely care remain paramount.

Embracing Compassion and Patient-Centered Care

Compassion is the cornerstone of any medical response, yet several reviews noted a lack of empathy during critical moments. At TowerDIRECT, we view every call as a human story, not just a series of policy checkboxes. Our upcoming empathy workshops and patient-communication seminars are designed to remind our entire team that caring language and active listening can be as life-saving as any piece of equipment. We pledge that when you summon help through TowerDIRECT, you’ll encounter responders who treat you with the respect, reassurance, and kindness you deserve.

Honoring Patient Requests & Improving Communication

Clear, two-way communication in emergencies can never be compromised. Some customers reported that explicit directions—such as preferred destination hospitals—were mistakenly ignored, causing undue stress and delays. We’ve launched a new “Confirm & Deliver” protocol: every time a destination is specified, our dispatchers and field teams will read back the instruction and log it in real time. By embedding this confirmation loop into our operations, we intend to eliminate misunderstandings and keep patient wishes front and center.

Upholding Professionalism & Accountability

Adherence to policy is essential for safety, but we recognize that rigid application without context can harm those we aim to serve. Multiple reviews criticized a perceived “policy over people” approach and a reluctance to own mistakes. TowerDIRECT is revising our standard operating procedures to include an incident-review board, staffed by volunteers and outside advisors, so that any misstep is met with transparent evaluation and corrective action. Our goal is not only to meet industry standards but to exceed them through a culture of continuous improvement.

Learning From Exemplary Alternatives

Feedback is not just about pointing out shortcomings—it also highlights shining examples. Several community members have recommended Western Berks Ambulance for its reliability and warmth during crises. We respect and admire what Western Berks has achieved: prompt arrivals, competent care, and genuine empathy. Their model informs our own commitment to excellence. By studying successful approaches within our region, TowerDIRECT will forge partnerships, share best practices, and strive to match—or surpass—the high bar set by those trusted and endorsed by local residents.
