Capture the report passively
EMS and ED staff keep their usual verbal handoff. EMS Link hears the report through your ED's radio audio, with a backup capture computer ready to take over if the primary drops.
Pre-arrival readiness for emergency departments
EMS Link listens alongside your existing radio handoff and organizes each EMS report into a shared patient view — acuity, vitals, activation context and the original audio — so your receiving team can prepare before arrival.
Designed by emergency medicine physicians · Runs inside your ED · Nothing changes for EMS crews
“…inbound with a 68-year-old male, right-sided weakness, last known well twelve-ten, takes Eliquis, sugar 142, pressure 168 over 92. ETA sixteen minutes…”
Why it matters
When patient information has to be remembered, repeated or pieced together, preparation becomes one more task competing for attention. EMS Link puts each incoming report into a patient-centered workspace your team reviews together.
Built from the receiving end
EMS Link grew out of a moment every emergency department knows: a radio report arrives while the team is busy, and its details have to hold until the ambulance does. Every screen is built around the people on the receiving end — the charge nurse, the receiving clinicians and the specialty teams who need to know first.
How it works
Runs passively on your site's approved radio or audio source. Nobody re-types the report, and nobody changes how they talk.
EMS and ED staff keep their usual verbal handoff. EMS Link hears the report through your ED's radio audio, with a backup capture computer ready to take over if the primary drops.
Acuity, complaint, vitals and ETA are captured as the medic speaks. Each report is labeled from Incoming to Final, so your team always knows what is confirmed and what is still coming in.
A live arrival board, the transcript with audio, team notes and a one-click PDF. Optional downstream connections are scoped with your IT team.
Your department, your decision
EMS Link works from the radio traffic your emergency department already receives. There's nothing for crews to install and no agency integration to negotiate — your ED can adopt it on its own.
The arrival board
Every inbound patient on one timeline, laned by acuity. Hide the timeline when you just want the cards.
Incoming demand, ETAs and needs at a glance — plan rooms, staffing and equipment sooner.
Complaint, vitals and activation context before the bedside handoff begins.
Shared arrival info to coordinate stroke, trauma, cardiac or sepsis prep through your channels.
Time-sensitive arrivals
Last known well, anticoagulation, blood glucose and reported neuro findings in one view — plus RACE or LAMS when the medic reports them, per your stroke protocol.
Supports early coordination with the stroke team and imaging, guided by your hospital's activation process.
The reported mechanism beside the numbers that matter — heart rate, pressure, oxygen support and GCS — so the trauma team reviews the same picture.
Activation tiers and criteria are configured to your trauma program.
Onset time, reported 12-lead findings, rhythm and pre-hospital medications, organized for the team preparing the cath lab conversation.
An alert supports review; it is not a diagnosis or an instruction to activate a team.
Temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, pressure and a suspected source pulled together — the pattern your screening criteria look for.
Criteria and displayed variables follow your hospital's sepsis protocol.
Sample data. Activation levels, criteria and displayed variables are configured to each hospital's protocols.
A clearer handoff
The original conversation stays one click away. Select any line to hear it; topic tags show where the medic covered the patient, mechanism, vitals, treatment and ETA.
Security & implementation
Every deployment is scoped together before EMS Link touches patient information: sign-in, audio source, data handling, retention and protocols. Read the security overview →
Your sign-in method, department access, and who can view, edit or use radio tools.
Approved audio source with primary and backup capture, data flow, hosting, encryption, and access to recordings.
Agreed retention and deletion, tracked staff corrections, audited access and changes.
Activation criteria, patient fields and alerts — managed by your own site admins in the EMS Link console.
Optional EHR, notification or documentation interfaces, with clear support ownership.
Agreed goals — report availability, acknowledgment, readiness milestones — measured first.
No. EMS Link runs inside your emergency department, using the radio audio your ED already receives. Crews don't install anything or change how they call in, and there's no agency integration to set up. Deployment is scoped with your ED, IT and security teams.
No. Once your site's audio connection is configured, EMS Link captures and organizes the report passively while EMS and ED staff continue their usual verbal handoff. The dashboard adds to that conversation; it doesn't replace it.
Earlier access to organized pre-arrival information is intended to help your team prepare sooner. We measure impact in your workflow — from report receipt to team acknowledgment and readiness — rather than claiming time savings up front.
No tool can guarantee an error-free handoff. EMS Link is designed to reduce avoidable information loss by keeping patient details and the source transcript together. Clinicians still confirm critical information and follow local protocols.
No. The dashboard surfaces activation context for clinical review. Activation, notification and escalation stay governed by your hospital's protocols and any integrations you explicitly configure.
Simulated stroke, trauma, STEMI and sepsis patients: switch views, inspect activation variables, open the Medic Transcript and try sample edits. Fictional data only — not a clinical system.
