ambulance dispatch
Sending medical responders
Ambulance dispatch is the process of coordinating emergency medical services—receiving calls, assessing urgency, and sending ambulances to scenes.
A dispatch center handles these operations: Ambulance dispatch confirmed a unit was en route.
The term also refers to the center itself or the personnel who work there.
