FEBRUARY RECAP

Everything is bigger in Texas, including Pulsara's presence. We exhibited at two trade shows in Texas in February—ISC and the Alamo Interprofessional Emergency Medicine Symposium—and presented a webinar on 'Leveraging Networked Communication to Build a System of Care that Scales,' with Corey Ricketson, Pulsara Sales Vice President - Texas, and Eric Epley, Executive Director of the Southwest Texas Regional Advisory Council (STRAC). Be on the lookout for our coverage of the webinar. 

We also released our latest customer success story and case study out of Arkansas. National Park Medical Center teams achieved a consistent <60-minute average door-to-balloon time for STEMI and an 80% decrease in average door-to-CT time for stroke. 

Check out the trade shows Team Pulsara will be exhibiting at in March!

January Recap

January was on the quiet side for our teams. We exhibited at two trade shows—the NAEMSP Annual Meeting in Tampa, FL, and the Arrowhead EMS Conference in Duluth, MN—and made an exciting announcement for UK hospital and ambulance organizations: they can now procure Pulsara via the Crown Commercial Service on the updated G-Cloud 13 framework. 

We've got a busy month ahead of us in February. Check out what trade shows we'll be exhibiting at this month, and visit the corresponding landing page to set up a meeting with the team while they're in town!

November & December Recap

Is it just us, or does time seem to move faster the closer we get to the new year? We haven't let all of the delicious holiday foods slow us down or put us into hibernation mode. Throughout November and December, we exhibited at six trade shows across the United States, with Pulsara's Senior Vice President - Strategic Initiatives, Joey Branton, presenting a session during IAEM's Annual Conference & EMEX. 

Pulsara's CS Specialist - U.S. West, Cara McCoy, moderated the webinar 'Overhauling a Trauma System of Care.' Hosted by the American Trauma Society, the webinar focused on improving patient care by streamlining communication and coordination between EMS and hospital teams.

OCTOBER Recap

October flew by in the blink of an eye. Our team was busy prepping for November opportunities, including a webinar hosted by the American Trauma Society, and exhibiting at six trade shows across the United States. 

September Recap

September was a busy month for our teams. We attended seven trade shows across the United States and Europe, released a new version of our platform, and moderated a fantastic and educational webinar! 

August Recap

August flew by in the blink of an eye. While our teams only attended three trade shows, the end of the trade show season is going to prove to be busier than ever. Before we get to that, let's look at what we were up to in August. 

June & July Recap

Over the past two months, our team has attended four conferences worldwide and presented virtual and in-person sessions with topics focusing on addressing urban and rural healthcare access through broadband connectivity and the role of stupidity in EMS. 

What else has Team Pulsara been up to for the past two months? Let's take a look!

May Recap

May was the busiest trade show month for Team Pulsara, with our teams attending a whopping 11 shows across the globe. And events weren't the only things keeping the team busy in May! See our highlights from last month below.

April Recap

The fourth month of the year proved to be an exciting month for Team Pulsara. While we only attended three conferences in person—and sponsored two virtual conferences—our teams were hard at work expanding the Pulsara platform to include new patient types that will enable your teams to scale as each patient case evolves. 

Spring has officially arrived in the Northern Hemisphere, and daylight savings has come and gone (hopefully for the last time!)... which means we are already a quarter of the way through 2022! Continue reading to discover what Pulsara has been up to in March and all the great opportunities coming our way in April.

It has now been a full two months of accidentally writing "2021" instead of "2022," and there are no signs of it stopping anytime soon. While still adjusting to the new year, Team Pulsara has been excited to jump into the ever-growing list of awesome conferences available around the globe!

JANUARY Recap

Pulsara's first conference of the year was a success! With seven of our Pulsarians in attendance - including our CEO/Founder and President - the NAEMSP Conference in San Diego, CA created opportunities to strengthen relationships with customers and nurture relationships with those seeking positive change in their healthcare system. 

2021 was yet another year of all things new and "unprecedented," and Pulsara has worked hard to keep up with the rapidly changing healthcare system in this season of change. Join us as we look back at what Pulsara has been up to during the winter of 2021, and look ahead to what's coming up in 2022. 

With back-to-back events all month, October has come and gone in a flash. Let's take a look at the exciting things Team Pulsara has been up to in October, and find out where you can catch us on the road in November and December.

Force Multiplier Patient Care: How EMS Leaders are Revolutionizing the Industry through ET3 Clinic Partner Agencies & Mobile Technology

What if you could keep hundreds of low-acuity patients a week from having to needlessly go to the emergency room? And what if, by doing so, you could reduce or eliminate the challenge of slow turnaround times, free up much-needed EMS and hospital resources, and help patients get the care they need faster, more affordably, and more efficiently?

Austin-Travis County EMS is doing just that. With a scalable system of care, they kept 434 low-acuity patients out of the hospital in just three weeks—rerouting them to faster and more appropriate care via the interconnected support of their ET3 clinic partner agency and the telehealth communications and logistics platform Pulsara.

Presented by Steve White, Commander of Texas’s Austin-Travis County EMS Collaborative Care Communication Center Initiative (C4), along with Dr. Carlos Navarro, Medical Director for Care Value Optimization, Austin market WellMed Medical Management, the speakers will share tangible takeaways and cutting-edge insights that you can apply to your own organization today.

September Recap

To kick off a busy September, Pulsara was selected as a JEMS 2021 Hot Product Winner at EMS Today! Pulsara’s newest version and functionality allow emergency services teams to practice at an expanded scope with dynamic tools, including group video conferencing, deep linking, the Pulsara Summary Report, and more.

August Recap

It was a busy month for Regional Sales Manager Wes Wood and others as they staffed the Pulsara booth at two in-person conferences and one virtual event. From Phoenix, AZ to San Antonio, TX, the flexibility and scalability of both our platform and team were evident at these exhibitions. 

COVID-19 has not seemed to slow down over the last few months; however, Pulsara is working hard to help our customers and their communities effectively manage the surge of patients and transfers throughout hospitals.  Both the Texas Emergency Medical Task Force (TX EMTF) and the Montgomery County Hospital District (MCHD) in Texas have leveraged Pulsara as an innovative solution and are able to not only reduce excessive phone calls, but also monitor their patients all through the mobile platform.

Pulsara also made groundbreaking strides forward in a rural and underserved Colorado community by integrating a telehealth and community paramedicine program with emergency services and hospitals in the area. After its success, the Teller County, CO leaders worked with Pulsara to publish a case study highlighting the radical development of their communities and how other emergency services agencies across the globe can do the same. Check out the video below:

As we head into the month of September, we kick off a busy conference season. Here's where you can find us!

July Recap

With our teams attending two trade shows — one in Georgia and the other in Mississippi — it seemed like the south couldn't get enough of our Pulsarians in July (or of Pulsara CMO Kris Kaull, who gave the keynote and presented a session at the ENGAGE User Conference). 

"Hello? Can you see us now?" That's right, folks! In July, Pulsara introduced an enhancement to the platform's calling capabilities — Group Video Conferencing!  The upgrade gives care teams the power to add multiple team members across organizations onto one video call.

June Recap

As many areas of the U.S. reached record-high temps, our Pulsarians managed to keep their cool in June as they kicked off the return to in-person trade shows, attending two stateside, and our first internationally in Dubai.
