Revolution in the emergency services: Telenotary doctor starts in Saxony-Anhalt!
In Saxony-Anhalt, an innovative model for improving patient care in the emergency services has been tested since today. The so -called telenot doctor is intended to play an important role in covering the high need for medical support, especially in rural areas. The idea behind this concept is that emergency paramedics receive medical support in emergencies without an emergency doctor having to be directly at the scene.
With the introduction of the telenotarz system in the districts of Mansfeld-Südharz and Saalekreis as well as in the city of Halle (Saale), Interior Minister Dr. Tamara Zieschang an increase in quality in emergency services. "We would like to cover both urban and rural areas and use valuable resources in the emergency services in the best possible way," she said. The aim of the project is to use the experiences that are gained for future optimizations of the emergency services.
functioning of the telenotarz system
The telenot doctor works closely with the non -medical rescue staff, especially the emergency paramedics. In the event of an assignment, the vital data of a patient are transmitted to the telenot doctor, which is often able to make decisions and to give instructions. This support takes place immediately, without an additional journey time, which can be decisive in critical situations.
dr. Zieschang emphasizes that despite this new technology, the emergency doctor will still be available if the situation requires it. "It is important to equip the rescue control centers in the best possible way," continued the minister. She thanked everyone who is involved in the important project and contributed to the implementation of their implementation.
The pilot project is initially created for two years, with the possibility of extension. A total of 52 ambulances and ten emergency medical vehicles are available in the three affected emergency services areas to supply almost 560,000 people.
regulatory basics and sustainability
The implementation of the telenotarz system is part of a comprehensive project that was initiated in 2021 by the introduction of the Innovation clause in the Saxony-Anhalt emergency services law. This clause allows temporary exceptions to test new, innovative concepts. The aim is to learn from practice and to use the experiences made to improve the emergency services.
In addition, another concept was already approved this year, the paramedics, in the districts of Wittenberg and Burgenlandkreis. This system stipulates that emergency paramedics act and intervene in certain emergency situations to reduce the pressure on the emergency rooms in the hospitals. These permits apply by the end of June 2025 with an option for one -year extension.
The introduction of these two new models marks an important step to modernize the emergency services in Saxony-Anhalt and aims to improve medical emergency care. For more information on the topic and the planned developments, www.magdburg-klickt.de a good source.
