EMS and First Responders(AMS)

• We at Airspace want to make it our mission to avoid any first responder ever being hurt by CO again. Our monitors are automatic - just be sure they are turned on. They are inexpensive to buy and maintain. No first responder ever need be injured by CO again. Prevention is affordable and available from Airspace Monitoring Systems, Inc.
• CO is a problem that is infrequent enough to be extremely dangerous for first responders. Because serious harm by CO is so infrequent it has been hard to justify Emergency First Responders having expensive and complicated CO detection with them at every response. The unfortunate result of that is occasionally people are hurt and even killed by CO.
• An incident in our home city of Milwaukee, WI just this past fall hospitalized 4 first responders and resulted in the City of Milwaukee now sending a CO monitor in with every first response team. The city of Madison, WI uses our monitors - attached to a medical bag with every first response team.
• Crews that use CO monitors all the time are saving Fire and Rescue department dollars. By having CO detecting equipment with them, they can call out Fire/Rescue only when CO is actually present. All the complicated and expensive protocol of trying to predict and send crews when CO might be present is eliminated.
• Patients are better served as well. No one need be returned to a home with low CO levels ever again! Crews using monitors tell us they find exactly that situation where they would not have expected it by symptoms.
• Patients also benefit by being able to confirm false positive Puls-Oximeter readings. See the COHQ web site for more information.
• For EMT and Emergency Management the ability to store without requiring maintenance or degrading in capability is a significant advantage our Airspace technology can offer Emergency Management. Several states are presently looking at Airspace Monitors to equip task forces in the event local EMTs are overwhelmed by a catastrophic event. No other technology offers the affordability, ease of use, and ability to store as efficiently as the Airspace Monitor does.
