Challenge

The Yorkshire Ambulance Service (YAS) covers almost 6,000 miles of highly varied terrain across the North of England, from isolated moors to coastlines and city centres. In every location, effectively treating patients requires fast access to Electronic Patient Records (EPRs), so frontline staff need digital devices they can rely on, regardless of the area, weather conditions or environment.

Solution

The Getac V110’s combination of compact design, extensive functionality and rugged credentials made it the ideal solution for YAS’s needs. Not only can the device go wherever ambulance crews need to, but it also operates flawlessly in difficult weather conditions and extreme temperatures. Inbuilt 4G connectivity also allows teams to collect and share critical information from remote locations.

Benefits

With the V110 in place throughout YAS’s fleet of ambulances, front line ambulance crews can focus on patient care without worrying about their devices. The V110’s MIL-STD-810G, IP65 and MIL-STD461G certifications means it can withstand enhanced cleaning regimes, while Getac’s Bumper to Bumper Warranty minimises any unplanned downtime, keeping ambulances on the road where they belong.

“Emergency services work can be challenging and unpredictable, particularly in the remote and difficult conditions found throughout much of Yorkshire. Our frontline staff never know where the next call will take them, which means they need to be prepared for all eventualities. With the V110, we know they are.”
