Patient monitoring plays a critical role in prehospital care, enabling EMS providers to track vital signs, assess patient condition, and detect changes in real-time. Monitoring tools include ECG, pulse oximetry, capnography, and blood pressure tracking. These systems support timely decision-making during transport and handoff to hospital teams. Integrated patient monitoring improves documentation accuracy, care continuity, and patient outcomes. Training on device use and data interpretation is essential. EMS Software is another important topic that explores broader tools used in the field. Explore the articles below for guidance on patient monitoring equipment, protocols, and best practices.

Dispatch, call centers, and 911 systems are critical components of emergency response. These operations manage call intake, resource allocation, and communication between dispatchers and field units. Efficient systems and well-trained staff help ensure accurate information, quick response times, and coordinated incident management. Technology like CAD, AVL, and integrated radio systems enhances performance and situational awareness. Dispatch, call centers & 911 services must follow state and national standards for operations and training.
