| Title | Improving the Quality of Pre-Hospital Emergency Medical Services: A Case Study of the Taipei City Zhuangjing Squad Volunteer EMS | ||
| Keyword | |||
| Abstract | Emergency Medical Services (EMS) are a critical component of urban pub-lic safety and life-saving efficiency, especially in the context of frequent traffic accidents, sudden illnesses, and natural disasters brought about by global climate change, urbanization, and population density. The quality of EMS directly im-pacts the survival of individuals. To explore how to effectively enhance the qual-ity of pre-hospital emergency care, this study uses the case of the volunteer res-cue team from the Zhuangjing Squad in the Xinyi District of Taipei City. It comprehensively examines the roles, contributions, and areas for improvement of volunteer rescuers in on-site emergency operations, focusing on the handling processes and outcomes of Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) cases. It is hoped that the involvement of volunteer rescuers can assist in completing basic procedures, transporting patients, and monitoring vital signs, thereby effectively reducing the burden on professional firefighters and improving overall rescue quality. This study adopts data statistics and situational analysis to compile duty sta-tistics from the Zhuangjing Unit for the years 2023–2024. It analyzes dispatch times, causes of emergency calls, emergency service duration, OHCA (Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest) case data, current volunteer participation status, and personnel information, in order to explore the current training mechanisms, col-laboration models, and on-site challenges faced by volunteer EMTs. Research findings indicate that the data from the Zhuangjing Squad for the 2023-2024 year shows an average of nearly 9 rescue cases per day. The analysis of OHCA cases with and without volunteer emergency responders focuses on response time, emergency rescue time, and the effectiveness of emergency res-cue. There is no significant difference in response time and emergency rescue time between the two modes, but there is a significant difference in the effective-ness of emergency rescue. |
