Artificial intelligence is permeating all niches of public and private life. Can it enhance decision making and situational awareness in EMS? Making the right decisions while being aware of what’s happening all around you is among the biggest challenges for first responders during emergencies. Fortunately, artificial intelligence (AI) can address both problems effectively even in the worst of situations.

In emergencies, public safety relies on near-real-time communications. But when data networks are congested, the potential for data lag and delays rises. Verizon Frontline Network Slice - Connected Vehicle puts heavy network traffic in the rearview mirror, providing first responders with a dedicated connection for fast, reliable communication.

Members of the Indianola Police Department (IPD) weren’t just looking for an upgrade when they partnered with Verizon for an advanced wireless communications solution—they were seeking a transformation. What they achieved emphasizes what the power of collaboration and innovative technology can do to revolutionize public safety. This is their story, and it could be yours too.

In dire emergencies, communication is critical. That's where Verizon’s satellite services and solutions step in. These cutting-edge satellite services connect First Responders during disasters like wildfires, earthquakes and hurricanes to help maintain mission-critical communications when they're needed most.
