ResQCore: The technology infrastructure powering emergency care in Africa

The Problem
Nigeria’s Emergency Medical Services (EMS) are fragmented and inefficient:

Disjointed Operations: Private and government ambulances operate in silos, with no centralized coordination.
Critical Shortage: The country has only 0.4 ambulances per 100,000 people, far below the WHO's standard of 1 per 10,000.
Dangerously Slow Response: In Lagos, median EMS response times can reach up to 35 minutes, significantly affecting survival rates.
Manual Systems: Most EMS operations rely on paper-based processes, with no real-time tracking, no data sharing, and limited visibility across the system.

The Solution – ResQCore Platform
ResQCore is a digital command-and-control platform built to transform EMS delivery by:
Creating a Unified Network: Integrates both public and private ambulance services into one cohesive platform.
AI-Powered Dispatch: Automatically allocates the closest available ambulance, reducing critical response times.
Real-Time Tracking: Enables patient relatives, service coordinators, and hospitals to monitor ambulance journeys live.
Secure Medical Data Sharing: Collects and shares patient data safely with relevant medical teams and authorities.
Hospital Integration: Assesses hospital readiness and facilitates smoother patient handovers.

Impact and Potential
Life-Saving Outcomes: Research shows that timely EMS intervention can reduce mortality by up to 50%.
Public Health Advancement: An efficient EMS system builds trust in healthcare infrastructure, improves health outcomes, and enhances preparedness for mass emergencies.
Scalable Impact: The platform is designed to be scalable across Nigeria and adaptable to other regions facing similar healthcare challenges.
