Vehicle features that stand out when undertaking emergency medical service (EMS) assignments include auxiliary heating and cooling that helps ensure the interior climate is ideal both for patients and ambulance crew. Proper ventilation throughout the EMS vehicle is also essential for a healthy flow of fresh air.
At the same time, medicine storage should be climate-controlled in a way that keeps drugs well within their recommended temperature range. This helps maintain their potency and effectiveness, and assures that they last a full shelf life until expiration.
Seamless internet connectivity, such as that which powers Med Tech’s Communications Center is also a must. Finally, portable power to supply the equipment and devices onboard ensures uninterrupted care to and from hospitals and clinics.
