EMS leaders need the best tools at a reasonable cost in order to provide treatment for their communities.

When you consider that and iPad costs 1/5 the price of a Toughbook and offers and easier to use interface and connectivity resource, it is a no-brainer to move in this direction.

Included in Jon’s announcements is the announcement of their ePCR app on the iPad that ties in with their existing interactive product line framework.
Jon and Brad share some of the most exciting things Zoll has going on at the event in Baltimore this year. Among them, a look at the newly announced RescueNet by Zoll ePCR iPad App that integrates all of the technologies both in the ambulance and at the hospital.
