Minutes or even seconds can mean the difference between life or death. Every Second Counts tells the inspiring story of how the Indian government and a non-profit foundation, the Emergency Management and Research Institute (EMRI), partnered to create a world-class emergency response system that serves more than 700 million people and has saved more than 2 million lives. What the government of India achieved in partnership with EMRI is nothing short of groundbreaking. In Every Second Counts, William A. Haseltine describes the key factors behind the success of EMRI: the application of cutting-edge technologies, an outstanding medical education system, and a close working partnership between a well-intentioned government and a capable non-profit partner. Every Second Counts is an important book for policymakers, business leaders, and healthcare leaders who care about providing high-quality care at affordable costs to all those in need."--Publisher's description. 610 20 $a Emergency Management and Research Institute (India) $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2019017635 650 0 $a Emergency medical services $z India. 650 0 $a Emergency medicine $z India. 650 7 $a Emergency medical services. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00908554 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 650 2 $a Emergency Medical Services. $0 https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D004632 710 2 $a Brookings Institution, $e issuer of work. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n81067841 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213013507.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B725D6401D7611EA83B92C1397128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
