1. A method comprising:
- providing a transceiver;
the transceiver receiving information from a monitoring system in a monitored region via a first communications link, the information regarding a detected event in the monitored region;
the transceiver communicating an occurrence of the detected event to a third party to dispatch the third party to the monitored region;
when a third party communications module is within a predetermined distance of the monitored region, the transceiver transmitting the information to the third party communications module via a second communications link;
the transceiver receiving a command from the third party communications module via the second communications link; and
the transceiver sending the command to the monitoring system via the first communications link,wherein the command silences sounders within the monitored region.

17. A system comprising:
-
a monitoring system in a monitored region; and a first communications module in communication with the monitoring system via a first communications link, wherein, upon detection of an event in the monitored region, the monitoring system transmits information regarding the event to the first communications module, and wherein, upon receiving the information, the first communications module communicates an occurrence of the event to a third party to dispatch the third party to the monitored region, wherein, upon determining that a third party communications module is within a predetermined distance of the monitored region, the first communications module transmits the information to the third party communications module via a second communications link, wherein the first communications module receives a command from the third party communications module via the second communications link, wherein the first communications module sends the command to the monitoring system via the first communications link, and wherein the command silences sounders within the monitored region.
