This is from a a survey on emergency medical services provided by highway concessionaires in the Campinas region. Looking for the correct term in US English. Thanks!

Os itens **central de regulação**, telefone gratuito e rádio de monitoramento estavam presentes em todas as concessionárias e, quanto à frota de veículos, havia em média nove viaturas de suporte básico, uma de suporte avançado por concessionária e, viaturas de resgate não foram apontadas pelo coordenador da empresa B.

Asker: Thanks for your help, David. I'm a bit confused at how a 'center' could be described as an 'item'.

emergency call center


Explanation:

A Central de Regulação Integrada recebe todas as chamadas de ocorrências, tanto pelo telefone 192, do Samu, quanto pelo número 193, do Resgate. Logo, a população pode ligar para qualquer um dos números: todas as ocorrências são atendidas pelo Corpo de Bombeiros ou pelo Samu, como já é realizado normalmente, de acordo com a indicação para cada caso
