By: EaseAlert

As of March 2025, with support from Zetron and Stolz Telecom, EaseAlert announced the successful installation of our latest heart-smart Firefighter Alerting System (FFAS) at Sherman Fire-Rescue in Sherman, Texas. This milestone marks another step forward in our mission to enhance firefighter safety and efficiency while showcasing the growing momentum of our civilian-side business. Partnering with our trusted channel partner, Zetron, we produced this cutting-edge system at our headquarters in Largo, Florida, and shipped it to Sherman, where it’s now making a real impact.

A Collaborative Effort Rooted in Innovation

This installation is a testament to the power of collaboration. EaseAlert, has been a pioneer in heart-smart alerting technology since 2019. Our patented pre-alert system—designed to reduce stress and cardiovascular risks for firefighters—pairs seamlessly with Zetron’s MAX Fire Station Alerting platform. Together, along with top-tier integrators like Stolz Telecom, we’re delivering solutions that help first responders respond faster, arrive smarter, and stay healthier.

Sherman Fire-Rescue: A Community Anchor

Sherman Fire-Rescue, the recipient of this EaseAlert system, is a vital part of Sherman, Texas—a growing city just north of Dallas. With four fire stations, three engine companies, four Mobile Intensive Care Units (MICUs), and a dedicated team of 94 certified firefighters, Sherman Fire-Rescue responds to approximately 8,500 calls annually. From medical emergencies (70% of calls) to fire incidents (20%) and public service needs (10%), their team is on duty 24/7, serving both the city and parts of Grayson County. This installation equips their firefighters with tools to reduce stress-related health risks—a critical need, given that heart attacks remain the leading cause of on-duty firefighter deaths.

From Tampa Bay, FL to Sherman, TX: A Seamless Implementation

The journey of this system began at our Largo, Florida facility, where our team designed and manufactured the FFAS to meet Sherman’s unique needs. After production, we shipped the system directly to Stolz Telecom in Texas, where Stolz team of expert integrators took care of the rest. The EaseAlert FFAS tied in seamlessly with the new Zetron MAX Fire Station Alerting System for Sherman Fire-Rescue’s. This project highlights EaseAlert’s ability to deliver tailored, high-impact solutions throughout the United States.

Momentum in the Fire Service

This installation is more than just a single success—it’s a sign of EaseAlert’s accelerating progress. While our roots lie in supporting first responders, our partnership with Zetron is opening doors to broader civilian applications. Fire departments like Sherman Fire-Rescue are recognizing the value of heart-smart technology, and we’re proud to lead the charge in reducing stress-related injuries while boosting response times. With the National Institutes of Health funding a clinical study on our FFAS—conducted by NDRI-USA, Center for Fire, Rescue, and EMS Health Research, and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University—we’re gaining traction as a game-changer in firefighter health and safety.

Looking Ahead

The Sherman installation is just the beginning. As we continue to partner with industry leaders like Zetron, EaseAlert is poised to bring our heart-smart solutions to more fire departments and civilian organizations across North America and beyond. Our commitment remains unwavering: to reduce stress-related risks for firefighters while empowering them to serve their communities more effectively.

Your Control Room Doesn’t Need Replacing. It Needs Preparing.

For years, conversations about control room technology have centred on replacement.

Replacing legacy systems. Replacing networks. Replacing infrastructure.

Today, that conversation is changing.

The control room has evolved more in the last five years than it did in the previous twenty. Emergency services are responding to increasing demand, more complex incidents and greater public expectation, while preparing for one of the biggest technology transitions in a generation through the Emergency Services Network (ESN).

Managing Risk, Vulnerability and Demand: The Growing Importance of THRIVE

Every call into a police control room matters. But not every call carries the same level of threat, harm or risk. As police forces continue to face growing demand, increasingly complex incidents and ongoing resource pressures, the ability to quickly assess and prioritise calls has never been more important. That’s why THRIVE has become such a fundamental part of modern policing.

THRIVE, which stands for Threat, Harm, Risk, Investigation, Vulnerability and Engagement, provides a structured framework that helps call handlers and dispatchers assess incidents consistently and make informed decisions about the most appropriate response.

Your Zetron. Your Way.

The pressure to modernize emergency communications is real and growing. Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) migration, Text-to-9-1-1, GIS-based location services, integrated workflows and automation across call taking, computer aided dispatch (CAD) and dispatch, are no longer aspirational — they are operational expectations.

At the same time, agencies face staffing shortages, budget constraints, evolving funding opportunities and growing demands on telecommunicators and dispatch teams, all of which can impact modernization efforts.

Your Zetron, Your Way is about giving our customer choice and partnering in a way that builds a path forward that respects their infrastructure, budget cycles and operational realities.
