Assembly time is where you have the most control of an incident
The FDNY EMS Command responds to more than 4,000 calls per day. They range from car accidents to building fires to cats stuck in trees, and responses vary accordingly. Sometimes they might take hours, sometimes they take just a few minutes. With such unpredictable conditions, the FDNY focuses on improving what they call “response time.” That’s the amount of time between a 911 call being made and emergency responders arriving on the scene. This might sound familiar.
