We also operate satellite phones and a network of event-dedicated mobile phones and tablets for real-time GPS tracking and incident reporting.
Electronic Reporting
Our ePCR system allows our medics to record incidents and patient care at the bedside and transmit data electronically to the client and to our clinical quality assurance system which provides random auditing of all care provided.
