Abstract:
Throughout the world, experience is growing in the development of plans for military-civilian collaboration in disaster preparedness. This involves the complex problems associated with the coordination of various components of military and civilian Emergency Medical Services (EMS) systems and organizational differences between countries.EMS are dependent on relationships between hospitals, police-fire-ambulance services, and municipal, county and state governments. In an emergency, their integration is accomplished in: (1) detection and assessment; (2) call for ambulance and hospital; (3) orga

Abstract The use of computers by the emergency services for the fast mobilisation of people and equipment is relatively new. Only in the last two years have fire brigades up and down the country been installing these systems, which have also provided a method of collecting statistics on fire accidents. This, in turn, has paved the way for more ambitious computer systems for management information. It is in this area that the future lies for command and control systems. The operational system provides help for the immediate needs of the service. The management information system holds out the h

Objectives. To examine the impact of extreme heat on emergency services in Boston, MA. Methods. We conducted relative risk and time series analyses of 911 dispatches of the Boston Police Department (BPD), Boston Emergency Medical Services (BEMS), and Boston Fire Department (BFD) from November 2010 to April 2014 to assess the impact of extreme heat on emergency services. Results. During the warm season, there were 2% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 0%, 5%) more BPD dispatches, 9% (95% CI = 7%, 12%) more BEMS dispatches, and 10% (95% CI = 5%, 15%) more BFD dispatches on days when the maximum tem

The obtained information on gas-dynamic state of the mine ventilation network at a current moment of time is used for undertaking primary measures according to the plan of accident response: emergency evacuation of people and actions of militarized mine-rescue services for eliminating emergency at its initial stage with taking into account changed emergency ventilation mode.

Abstract:
Emergency response management demands certain characteristics of the individuals involved. They need to act decisively on often little or incomplete information within tight time schedules, or, sometimes, with too much data from which it is difficult to extract key information. Procuring the right information at the right time, in the right format, and to get it to the right people is a challenge in any emergency response management system design; especially, as poor designs can lead to response systems that are not used, are ineffective, and in some cases dangerous to the emergency personnel.

Abstract:
School-based fire safety education programs are implemented by fire services organisations around the world to improve children’s fire safety knowledge and skills. Such education is considered the single most modifiable strategy that fire services organisations can implement to reduce the risk that children will misuse fire or be harmed by fire. Despite this, there are no overarching and evidence-based guidelines for the development of new programs or the evaluation and modification of existing ones. To fill this void, a rapid evidence assessment of existing literature was conducted. Results r
