Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly and representatives of the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office have accepted re-accreditation honors for the FCSO Communications Center. The presentation took place during the 2022 Florida Telecommunications Accreditation Commission meeting at the World Golf Village in St. Augustine on Feb. 24.

The FCSO successfully completed an onsite assessment for re-accreditation in January. Staly, FCSO Director of Communications Christina Mortimer, Accreditation Supervisor Michele Bagnoli and Accreditation Assistant Marilenn Punsalan helped coordinate the visit by the TAC Assessment Team.

The TAC Assessment Report stated, “All employees were enthusiastic. They admirably answered questions that reflected written policy and showed an in-depth understanding of center procedures.”

“We pride ourselves in making sure every member of the FCSO has the latest training and equipment available," Staly said. "Our community should feel safe knowing that when they call us for help the employees on the phone are well-trained and know exactly what to do to send help.”

The Flagler County Sheriff’s Office is a Four-Diamond Law Enforcement Agency. Besides being accredited by the Florida Telecommunications Accreditation Commission, FCSO is also accredited by the Florida Commission on Law Enforcement Accreditation and the agency’s Sheriff Perry Hall Inmate Detention Facility is accredited by the Florida Corrections Accreditation Commission. The agency also is accredited by the National Institute of Ethics.
