Focus on GVK Emergency Management Research Institute<br />

is aimed at a holistic delivery of the most<br />

sophisticated Emergency Management<br />

Services.<br />

108 Emergency Response Process<br />

(Sense-Reach- Care- 48 hour follow<br />

up)<br />

Sense: The objective is to provide an<br />

appropriate response to the person in<br />

emergency and deliver suitable and speedy<br />

emergency services. Reach: Reach is the<br />

vital thread of connectivity between Sense<br />

and Care. The reach team arrives at the<br />

emergency location and provides necessary<br />

Emergency Care within the golden hour.<br />

Care: Care is the life-saving stage in the<br />

Emergency operations. Emergency care, if<br />

required, is imparted to the victim on-site<br />

and also on the way to the Health Center.<br />

The <strong>Ambulance</strong> Team ensures speedy and<br />

efficient transfer of the victim from the<br />

site. Emergency Response Center<br />

Physician (ERCP): Pre-hospital care is<br />

provided by EMT based on protocols and<br />

under the directions of the ERCP. Instructions<br />

are provided by the ERCPs after collecting<br />

all the vital information about the emergency.<br />

Throughout, the ERO, EMT and ERCP are<br />

on conference call constantly monitoring the<br />

victim until he/she is admitted in a Health<br />

Center. Follow Up-48 Hours: Feedback<br />

on the service is collected by calling the<br />

patient’s relative or patient after 48 hours<br />

to assess the quality of the emergency Care<br />

provided.<br />
