Abstract
A system may receive, from a first device associated with a patient, a request for an ambulance. The system may determine, based on a location associated with the first device, an available ambulance to be dispatched to the patient. The system may provide, to a second device associated with an ambulance operator of the available ambulance, information that identifies the location associated with the first device. The system may identify a hospital to which the patient is to be delivered. The system may provide, to a third device associated with the hospital, information associated with the available ambulance or the patient.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- one or more memories;
- and
- one or more processors, communicatively coupled to the one or more memories, to:
- provide, to a first device associated with a patient, a user interface associated with an application,
- the user interface providing one or more roles to be selected by a user of the application;
- receive, from the first device, information associated with a selection of a role, of the one or more roles, associated with the patient;
- receive, from the first device, a request for an ambulance;
- determine, based on a location associated with the first device, one or more available ambulances within a geographical proximity of the location;
- automatically select or provide for selection an available ambulance of the one or more available ambulances;
- transmit, to a second device associated with an ambulance operator of the available ambulance, information that identifies the location associated with the first device;
- identify a plurality of hospitals within a threshold distance to the patient;
- generate a score for each of the plurality of hospitals,
- the score being generated based upon one or more of:
- a medical situation associated with the patient,
- registration information associated with the patient,
- patient information associated with the patient,
- a preference indicated by the patient, or
- traffic conditions associated with a route to the plurality of hospitals;
- determine a hospital, of the plurality of hospitals, to which the patient is to be delivered based on the score;
- determine a route to be taken by the ambulance;
- identify a set of traffic control devices along the route;
- transmit, to the set of traffic control devices, instructions to further cause the set of traffic control devices to automate signal changing based on ambulance movement along the route;
- and
- transmit, to a third device associated with the hospital, a notification that the available ambulance will be arriving with the patient,
- the notification including an estimated arrival time.
22 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:
- one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
- provide, to a first device associated with a patient, a user interface associated with an application,
- the user interface providing one or more roles to be selected by a user of the application;
- receive, from the first device, information associated with a selection of a role, of the one or more roles, associated with the patient;
- receive, from the first device, a request for a vehicle;
- determine, based on a location associated with the first device one or more available vehicles within a geographical proximity of the location;
- automatically select or provide for selection an available vehicle of the one or more available vehicles;
- transmit, to a second device associated with a driver of the available vehicle, information that identifies a traffic route to the first device;
- identify a plurality of destinations within a threshold distance to the user;
- generate a score for each of the plurality of destinations,
- the score being generated based upon one or more of:
- a medical situation associated with the user,
- registration information associated with the user,
- patient information associated with the user,
- a preference indicated by the user, or
- traffic conditions associated with a route to the plurality of destinations;
- determine a destination, of the plurality of destinations based on the score;
- determine a route to be taken by the vehicle;
- identify a set of traffic control devices along the route;
- transmit instructions to the set of traffic control devices to further cause the set of traffic control devices to automate signal changing based on ambulance movement along the route;
- and
- transmit, to a third device associated with the destination a notification that the available vehicle will be arriving with the user,
- the notification including an estimated arrival time.
20 more elements
A method performed by a system that includes one or more devices, the method comprising:
- providing, to a patient device associated with a patient, a user interface associated with an application,
- the user interface providing one or more roles to be selected by a user of the application;
- receiving, from the patient device, information associated with a selection of a role, of the one or more roles, associated with the patient;
- receiving, by the system and from the patient device, a request for an ambulance;
- determining, by the system and based on a location of the patient device, one or more available ambulances within a geographical proximity of the location;
- automatically, by the system, selecting or providing for selection an available ambulance of the one or more available ambulances;
- transmitting, by the system and to an ambulance operator device associated with an ambulance operator of the available ambulance, information associated with the location of the patient device;
- identifying, by the system, a plurality of hospitals within a threshold distance to the patient;
- generating, by the system, a score for each of the plurality of hospitals,
- the score being generated based upon one or more of:
- a medical situation associated with the patient,
- registration information associated with the patient,
- patient information associated with the patient,
- a preference indicated by the patient, or
- traffic conditions associated with a route to the plurality of hospitals,
- determining, by the system, a hospital, of the plurality of hospitals, to which the ambulance is to deliver the patient based on the score;
- determining, by the system, a route to be taken by the ambulance;
- identifying, by the system, a set of traffic control devices along the route;
- transmitting, by the system, instructions to the set of traffic control devices to further cause the set of traffic control devices to automate signal changing based on ambulance movement along the route;
- and
- transmitting, by the system and to a hospital device associated with the hospital, a notification that the available ambulance will be arriving with the available ambulance or the patient,
- the notification including an estimated arrival time.
