1. A method for establishing an emergency proxy communication session by an emergency management system (EMS), the method comprising:
- a) detecting a request for assistance from a communication device, wherein the request comprises emergency data from a second device authorized to share emergency data with the communication device;
b) determining an emergency dispatch center (EDC) serving a jurisdiction of the second device based on at least the emergency data from the second device;
c) establishing a communication session between the communication device and the EDC, wherein;
i) a first data channel is established between the communication device and the EMS;
ii) a second data channel is established between the EMS and the EDC; and
iii) the first and second data channels are bridged to establish the communication session; and
d) providing a data set comprising the emergency data from the second device to the EDC.
