Rescue Services
Risk-oriented strategic planning and controlling for public agencies
Predictive analyses for strategic planning for rescue services
Flexible planning according to time or weekday (e.g. for the weekend: 1 ambulance, 4 during the week)
Scenario-based strategic planning for rescue services
Similar to fire departments , who issue a master fire plan, strategic planning also applies to rescue services. Next to geo-based factors, such as service area coverage and resulting emergency response times, other crucial factors include availability of resources and the number of simultaneous deployments. However, analyzing this data can be very complex and time consuming. With the help of digital data collection and self-learning algorithms Premergency creates all the required analyses with only a few mouse clicks. As a result you receive a daily-updated assessment of demand. Learn more on this topic in our case study on risk-oriented strategic planning.
Additionally, Premergency allows you to work scenario-oriented. This means, that you can simulate diverse deployment scenarios, which helps you take the necessary measures in order to guarantee that your rescue services are always ready for action. Especially in crisis situations, you have to plan for peaks in service. The scenario-oriented strategic planning by Premergency allows you to plan proactively, so that you are always well prepared.
Medical director of emergency services
As the medical director of emergency services you are in charge of medical operations for rescue services. This means, you actively contribute to strategic planning and define standards for corresponding analyses. This way, you develop a strategy for the disposition of rescue services. Premergency supports you with these tasks and helps you to plan tactical concepts for each medical scenario.
Controlling and evaluation of rescue services
To ensure a continuously improved efficiency, regular evaluations of rescue services are fundamental. Premergency optimizes your Controlling and allows a daily-updated quality control. Also, seasonal factors or daytime and weather will be taken into account. Thanks to an automatic evaluation of your deployment statistics you can assess the unit’s performance at any time. Furthermore, you understand how specific factors influence operations. This ensures an efficient quality control.
Premergency’s automatic analyses make the evaluation process easy and efficient. Strategic planning and Controlling now work hand in hand.
This is based on a data analysis of relevant key indicators, like dynamic availability, drive times, emergency response, etc.
Supporting pandemic preparedness planning
Premergency assesses critical infrastructures supporting catastrophe preparedness as well as pandemic preparedness planning. Premergency calculates the demand for resources and personnel with factors such as, capacities of hospital beds and the availability of medical staff. A dynamic and automatic risk assessment allows rescue service, public health authorities and other critical infrastructures to plan with anticipation which may buy time.
Site optimization and area coverage
Using an interactive risk map you analyze your service area coverage. The map thus divides the area according to the local risk factors. Meanwhile, you see how long it takes for units to reach a particular site. This allows you to gain valuable insights regarding area coverage and to take action if necessary.
Dynamic simulations allow you to visualize the impact of a new site on the total area coverage. Our site optimization tool thus helps you choose locations for a new site. Existing sites can be marked as either obsolete or essential. Next, our AI algorithm chooses the quantity and locations for possible new sites, based on previously set parameters. This way you can evaluate the consolidation or the expansion of sites.
