Last week, it was confirmed that three key emergency operational centres in the UK, have installed a special new computer aided dispatch system (CAD).

Where will the new system be used?

The centres in question are those in Bedford, Chelmsford and Norwich; and it was revealed that work has been going on to put these systems in place for the past 4 months. The new system has been provided to the East England Ambulance Service centres by a company named Cleric. Cleric specialise in computer software development, and were therefore ideal contenders to initiate such a bold scheme.

What does the new system do?

The new system will have huge benefits for patients. It means that they will be delivered ambulances in a far more efficient manner. This is designed to keep them safer, and has been implemented as a result of the East England ambulance service recognising it needs to become more adept at dealing with modern demand.
