To work as a dispatcher in a medical emergency setting, such as answering calls and assigning medical personnel, Chelsea would most likely need an associate degree or training related to emergency management, healthcare administration, or a similar field. While some positions may be available with just a high school diploma, an associate degree would provide more comprehensive knowledge and skills relevant to the role. A bachelor's or master's degree may not be necessary for a dispatcher position but could be beneficial for advanced roles in the healthcare system.
