5Gstore’s Giving Back Success Story

IMERT

5Gstore would like to congratulate Christopher and the Illinois Medical Emergency Response Team (IMERT) in Urbana, IL.

Introduction 

IMERT, the Illinois Medical Emergency Response Team, is comprised of hundreds of volunteers from every region of IL.

Challenge

The primary mission is to provide interim medical care by supporting local and regional resources as directed by the Incident Commander. Conditions are often austere, requiring responders to be self-sufficient.

IMERT has responded to numerous emergencies, disasters, and high-risk/high-profile events around the state. One of the issues we find during deployments is bandwidth is at a premium.

Solution

IMERT leveraged the benefits from Pepwave Max HD4, to allow better connectivity during remote operations and to further enhance our telemedicine component during times of disaster response. Being able to utilize the power of bonding multiple carriers into one unit and harnessing the power of the SpeedFusion Cloud service to provide this can be an enormous asset when our communities need medical care.
