GD Joins EMS World Podcast to Discuss Modernizing EMS-ED Communication
Ridgefield, NJ - December 17, 2025: General Devices, a leader in healthtech solutions that enhance emergency communications, is proud to announce that Solution Architect, Mitch Scott was recently featured on the EMS World Podcast, hosted by Chief Mike McCabe. The episode, titled “From Radio Chatter to Real-Time Data: Modernizing EMS–ED Communication,” dives into one of the most persistent challenges in pre-hospital and emergency department coordination: efficient, reliable communication.
In this insightful discussion, Scott and McCabe explore how the traditional “telephone game” of relaying patient information from EMS crews to hospital teams can lead to delays and miscommunication in critical scenarios such as motor vehicle accidents, STEMIs, and strokes. Scott sheds light on real-world pain points, including long wall times, rural transport challenges, and ED workload pressures that commonly disrupt seamless care.
Scott breaks down how General Devices’ e-Bridge Communication Platform empowers EMS and emergency departments with a secure, HIPAA-compliant solution that enables crews to send real-time multimedia and patient data, like photos, EKGs, videos, and vital signs, directly from the field to the ED, cath lab, stroke team, and transfer centers.
“As first responders and hospitals face increasingly complex patient care demands, bridging the communication gap with modern digital tools isn’t just a convenience, it’s a necessity,” said Mitch Scott, Solutions Architect at General Devices. “We need solutions that allow teams to show, not tell, critical information and establish a shared real-time view of the patient before arrival.”
