    It’s that time of year again when I sleuth around the internet and comb through user-reviews to compile the most useful smartphone apps for fire and EMS in an effort to keep you up to speed on the latest tools out there. So without further adieu, here are the most notable apps for 2018 (in no particular order):

     

    pulsepoint logoPulsePoint Respond – Help is on the Way

    PulsePoint empowers individuals, within covered communities, with the ability to provide life-saving assistance to victims of cardiac arrest. How cool is that?! Application users who have indicated they are trained in CPR are notified if someone nearby is having a cardiac emergency and may require CPR.

    If the medical emergency is in a public place, PulsePoint uses sophisticated location-based services to alert trained citizens who are in the immediate vicinity that someone is in need of CPR, empowering them to go save a life. In addition, the application also directs these citizen-rescuers to the exact location of the closest public access Automated External Defibrillator (AED).

    zoll respond logoZOLL Respond – Smart Dispatch on Your Smart Device

    ZOLL Respond is for RescueNet Dispatch customers. It allows crews to view and respond to trips through Google map navigation to the pick-up and drop-off points throughout your trip using any Android or iOS mobile device. ZOLL Respond allows you to cut out unnecessary phone calls with live chat features and live stream video communication and directly connect field crews to doctors at medical facilities.

    ZOLL Respond simplifies the dispatch process:

    • Gives dispatch, your crew, and the facility robust communication options (such as chat and push to talk)
    • Provides modernized mapping (such as online/offline for times when there is a loss of cellular connectivity)
    • Allows supervisors to know where vehicles are located

    kardia mobile logoKardiaMobile – EKG Monitor App to Watch!

    Kardia captures a medical-grade EKG in 30 seconds anywhere, anytime. This means you instantly know if your heart rhythm is normal or if atrial fibrillation is detected, and especially if the latter is true, you can email your EKG to yourself or your doctor.

    This app may be better suited for civilians but it is certainly worth knowing about, and definitely worth talking about! My dad, who is in and out of AFib regularly, will be getting one for Christmas.
