Note:
The information in Figure 8-6 and Table 8-6 is limited to calls and excludes all events that show zero time on
scene. A unit’s occupied time is measured as the time from when the call was received until the unit becomes
available again. The times shown are the average occupied minutes per call for the primary unit, rather than the
total occupied minutes for all units assigned to a call. Observations below refer to times shown within the figure
rather than the table.
Observations:
A unit's average time spent on a call ranged from 14 to 67 minutes overall.
The longest average times were for police-initiated medical calls.
The average time spent on crime calls was 44 minutes for other-initiated calls and
36 minutes for police-initiated calls.
