Emergency services and rescue services are organizations that protect public health and safety by responding to various emergencies. Many of these agencies exist solely to respond to specific types of emergencies, while others handle ad hoc emergencies as part of their regular responsibilities.
Numerous these agencies conduct community awareness and prevention programs to assist the public in effectively avoiding, detecting, and reporting emergencies.
Emergency medical services (EMS), also known as ambulance or paramedic services, are emergency care that provides immediate pre-hospital treatment and stabilization of severe illnesses and injuries and transportation to definitive care.
Additionally, they may be referred to as a first aid squad, FAST squad, emergency squad, ambulance squad, ambulance corps, life squad, or other initializations such as EMAS or EMARS.
