The community discussion on mobile integrated healthcare continued within the lecture halls and trade show floor of the 2013 EMS World Convention. Frazer LTD, a builder of traditional EMS modules, showcased an innovative, mobile clinic concept. Departing from the practice of retrofiitng an existing ambulance box, or a larger, expensive recreational vehicle, Frazer’s concept is to create a cost-effective footprint that is highly flexible and fits the need of the service being provided. This results in a surprisingly spacious interior, where there were two distinct patient treatment areas, PLentiful light and HVAC systems create a safe operating environment for the team who might evaluate a wide variety of nonurgent patients.
With a flexible design, the unit could be configured as a mobile command post that is smaller and less expensive than a large RV, yet be still self powered and not need to be towed.
