ALS

Advanced Life Support (ALS) refers to a level of emergency medical response that provides a higher degree of medical care than Basic Life Support (BLS). ALS ambulances are equipped with advanced medical equipment and trained personnel, including paramedics who have received specialized training to administer a broader range of life-saving interventions. These interventions may include advanced airway management, intravenous therapy, cardiac monitoring, and the administration of controlled medications. ALS ambulances are typically dispatched to more critical medical emergencies where patients require a higher level of medical expertise and intervention during transport to a medical facility. This level of ambulance service plays a crucial role in delivering timely and advanced medical care to individuals facing serious health emergencies.
