MESTA is the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) for most of Mayes County 40,000 residents.  MESTA also dispatches for 10 of Mayes county's fire departments. When you call 911, be prepared to answer a few simple questions to aid emergency responders in responding to and handling the emergency.  Questions will include the location of the emergency, your phone number (for the dispatcher to call back if further information is required) and the nature of the emergency.  Please be familiar with your location.   E-911 services are not currently available to wireless calls inside Mayes County.  If you call 911 to report an emergency from your cellular phone, please be prepared to tell the dispatcher your exact location.   Depending on your service provider and your specific location, your call may be answered at a PSAP located outside of Mayes County.
			MESTA utilizes the Emergency Priority Dispatch System.  The most advanced and comprehensive emergency medical dispatch system available.  All of our dispatchers are required to become NAEMD certified shortly after employment and to maintain certification.
