Rapid response
vehicles (RRVs)
Here at VTS Event Medical Services, we use Rapid Response Vehicles (RRVs) to reach patients as quickly as possible. They enable us to cross challenging terrain and are equipped with the necessary tech to ensure even a worse case scenario can be controlled and managed by our medical team. Depending on your event, we utilise a variety of different vehicles that are staffed by our qualified paramedics who can be on the scene within seconds.
The benefits of rapid response vehciles (RRVs)
sRapid response vehicles (RRVs) have many benefits that event organisers can take advantage of. Alongside improving event attendees’ general safety and well-being, RRVs can dramatically reduce response times, minimising the escalation of medical emergencies. These time-saving improvements are significant in a life-threatening situation where every second counts. Events that benefit most from the presence of rapid response vehicles include cycling events, festivals, sporting events and other events where attendee numbers are high or the landscape demands a vehicle on the scene that can rapidly respond to medical emergencies quickly and efficiently.
Our Rapid Response Vehicles In Action
Sporting Events
Sporting events benefit from rapid response vehicles as they can be used across a variety of terrain quickly and efficiently, meeting the demands of all sporting medical emergencies.
Outdoor Festivals
Festivals, specifically outdoor festivals demand rapid response vehicles due to the space needed to be covered by event medical personnel. By utilising RRVs our team is able to access attendees quickly and efficiently, minimising the effects of their emergency.
Trade Shows
Typically, trade shows will have large crowds and extensive walking areas which will need to be covered by your event medical team. The presence of RRVs allows speedy medical assistance for any accidents or health issues.
Community Fairs and Carnivals
Similar to trade shows, community fairs and carnivals attract large numbers of people. With an increased number of children and elderly attendees who might require more immediate medical attention. In some cases, carnivals may be covering a specific route, in which case, an RRV can be used in convoy to intervene if a medical emergency arrises.
RAPID RESPONSE VEHICLES ARE GREAT FOR:
Large Gatherings
Events with large crowds pose inherent risks of accidents or medical emergencies, necessitating trained medical support for swift intervention.
Physical Activities
Activities like sporting events or outdoor adventures increase the likelihood of injuries, requiring on-site medical assistance for prompt treatment.
Health Concerns
Events, where attendees may have pre-existing medical conditions or allergies, warrant the presence of medical professionals to address potential health crises effectively.
