Call Ambulance is an IT enabled Global Emergency Care Platform designed and developed in India with a good intention to save lives of people in emergencies using Mobile technology. 

Founded by two Software experts and former Infosys senior Executives, Umashankar Kotturu and Jagadish Vishwanatham, Call Ambulance offers Mobile App and service to people related to emergency transport and care. The Call Ambulance Mobile App connects the person in emergency with the nearest available Trained First Responder, Police Personnel, Transport Dept Staff, Ambulance Driver, nearby Hospitals along with Family members all simultaneously to get quick attention and care in any emergency.

Call Ambulance has wide network with all Private and Government Hospitals, Ambulance Drivers, Blood Banks, Medical Stores, Diagnostic Labs in Srikakulam District to work together and provide quick and reliable emergency response to public.

RedCross Society has initiated SERV program in which they have a mandate to train 27,000(1% of district population) first responders in Srikakulam. SERV Program is  part of the nationwide program of which Srikakulam is the first district.  This is being implemented as a pilot program.

First Responders are volunteer citizens who are trained in giving CPR, Prevent Choking, Stop Blood Loss etc and can support the victim till medical help arrives.  CallAmbulance is the technology partner of Social & Emergency Response Volunteer(SERV) and all the people trained will be added to the CallAmbulance platform.

Call Ambulance has already facilitated training for over 2000 people in Srikakulam district.

How Call Ambulance Mobile Technology Works? Using state of the art technologies CallAmbulance has developed web and mobile applications to give 108 patient’s location, medical records, emergency contacts/family doctors and insurance details before the patient calls emergency service. With this information in hand the emergency personnel can better address the patient needs. Usually, GPS assisted location service in a mobile phone is very accurate to the 50m distance. At times and in locations where there is no line of sight to the satellites, or access to cell phone towers or wifi signals around, GPS assisted service may not be that accurate. CallAmbulance will notify all the first responders who are within 1km distance of the incident location and can come to the location in under 5 minutes. Police patrol party, Transport department personnel are also notified as per their jurisdiction.

Using CallAmbulance one can minimize the call time and entire emergency can be managed in real time and can be viewed on google map. This app will help emergency services to provide care to many people within the Golden Hour and thereby save many more lives.

Also, in lieu with the Road Safety committee in Srikakulam, the application also has a feature to crowd source road hazards. Citizens can precisely report all the accident-prone areas using the “Report Hazard” feature in the app. The Safety committee can review these locations and take necessary actions.

Every smart phone owner can download Call Ambulance Mobile App for Free and use it in emergency to get attention and care.
