Anatomy of a Response 0:45 4:00 5:45 0:45 6:30 Time: Elapsed time: 0:30 1:15 0:30 1:45 Recognition: delay between initial illness or injury and activation of EMS system (45 seconds). Reaction time: difference in time between receipt of alarm and ’wheels moving’ on apparatus (30 seconds). Processing time: difference between notification of field units and receipt of call information by the communications center (30 seconds). Vertical response time: difference between arriving at the patient’s side and ‘wheels stop’ at the location (45 seconds). Response time: difference between ‘wheels stop’ at the location of the event and ’wheels start’ at the beginning of the response (4 minutes)
