Harris Co First In Nation with EMS Wireless

Harris County is implementing the nationa’s first wireless broadband system for emergency service personnel.

What can this new high tech system do?

• Livestream video, vital signs and EKG results while en route  to ER
• Doctors can transmit back to EMS life-saving treatment protocols

The wireless system, dubbed FirstNet, stems from the 9/11 Commission recommendation that part of the FCC’s radio spectrum be reserved for public safety purposes.
