Hospital Management’s Post

India continuously faces persistent challenges in providing timely and effective paramedic and ambulance services, especially for critical cases like cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, dialysis patients, and those requiring transplants. Despite increasing accessibility, most ambulances merely function as transportation units rather than equipped mobile medical units capable of saving lives during transit. Alarmingly, only 3% of hospitals offer emergency medical technicians (EMTs) in ambulances, and just 12% provide specialized en route care. Delays in ambulance response and inadequate care during the "golden hour" – the critical first 60 minutes after a medical emergency – significantly increase mortality rates from conditions such as strokes, heart attacks, and severe trauma. Moreover, the lack of Advanced Life Support (ALS) ambulances, which falls 32.2% below national requirements, underscores a pressing need for systemic reform. In contrast, first-world nations like the U.S. leverage trained paramedics, telemedicine, and predictive technologies for real-time monitoring and immediate interventions. By adopting such models, India could integrate AI-driven dispatch systems, equip ambulances with cutting-edge tools, and ensure paramedic-led emergency response teams. This approach could shift emergency care from being reactive to predictive, saving countless lives. Med24x7’s Transformative Vision: Med24x7 aims to address these systemic gaps with a comprehensive, tech-enabled, paramedic-led emergency service inspired by the successful 911 model in the U.S. This initiative envisions a fleet of ambulances staffed with certified paramedics, equipped with advanced life support systems, and integrated with telemedicine for expert guidance. Med24x7 also plans to create a sustainable socio-economic platform through subscription services and strategic partnerships, achieving financial independence within three years. Calling Visionaries to Join the Mission: Med24x7 seeks passionate individuals – technology experts, medical professionals, and social entrepreneurs – to co-create a transformative healthcare solution. By collaborating, stakeholders will contribute to a life-saving revolution in India’s paramedic services while building a scalable, revenue-generating model designed to meet a $60 million capital goal over three years. This is more than a business opportunity – it is a chance to redefine emergency healthcare in India, create societal impact, and establish a globally admired paramedic network. Visit www.med24x7.in

Ambulances are expected to arrive equipped with everything EMTs need to save lives, but increasing call volumes are making it hard to keep them fully stocked, affecting patient care. Zebra spoke with two public safety experts to understand why this issue persists and explore strategies to minimize ambulance wait times. https://lnkd.in/eEJ23n36 #ZebraTechnologies #PatientCare #PublicSafety #EmergencyResponse #EMTs

Manatee County Projects • Description and Scope To meet the growing response times for emergency medical services in Duette, one of our county's most geographically isolated areas, we are submitting and recommending an additional 24/7 ambulance to provide coverage in the area. Ambulance response time gaps, which can take 22 minutes or more, have become a common issue in this area of Manatee County. In order to address this problem, we plan to add new staff and an ambulance to the response matrix, which will ensure 24/7 coverage for the area. Our tentative plan is to house the ambulance and crew at Duette Fire Rescue District Station. • Rationale Introducing a 24/7 ambulance addition in Duette, the north east portion of Manatee County, stands as a pivotal measure to uphold public safety and enhance emergency response times. As our community experiences rapid growth, the existing Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Division encounters escalating demands, struggling to meet the needs despite recent system redesign and addition efforts. Presently, the response time of over 22 minutes to North East Manatee County (EMS System Average is 8.42) falls well below acceptable standards. By introducing a dedicated 24-hour ambulance, we aim to alleviate the strain on our EMS resources, ensuring swift and effective care for individuals in need, even in the most geographic remote areas of Manatee County
