About Paragon EMS Workbench — RescueTempo Command Board
Paragon EMS Workbench delivers the RescueTempo Command Board, a rugged, all-in-one dashboard designed for emergency medical services command staff. Whether you're a volunteer squad or a paid metropolitan department, the platform centralizes incident dispatch, resource tracking, crew rotation, and equipment inventory into a single pane of glass. Real-time call status updates, priority-level filtering, and a Kanban-style board let supervisors visualize active responses and instantly identify gaps in coverage—reducing radio chatter and manual logbooks.
Beyond dispatch, the application brings a rich toolset for operational continuity: unit asset grids show vehicle availability and readiness; crew rosters track qualifications and current assignments; supply monitoring flags low-stock medications and expired consumables before they compromise patient care. A built-in handover module auto-generates PDF shift reports, ensuring seamless turnover between duty officers. The protocol library provides quick access to standing medical orders, fostering compliance and faster clinical decision-making under pressure.
Paragon EMS Workbench excels in environments that demand version-controlled documentation without the overhead of specialist IT systems. Every call record, protocol update, and inventory change is timestamped and restorable via JSON backup, creating an implicit version history that supports audit readiness and continuous improvement. The command palette (Cmd+K) and keyboard-first navigation let power users dispatch resources in seconds, while the optional dark mode preserves night vision in low-light command posts. CSV export of all active calls and units simplifies reporting to oversight agencies and public information officers.
Ideal for EMS chiefs, shift commanders, logistics officers, and emergency planners, the RescueTempo Command Board adapts to a wide range of incident types—from mass-casualty events to routine interfacility transfers. Its modular architecture scales from a single-station iPad to a multi-monitor control room, and the local-first storage model ensures the tool remains responsive even when connectivity is spotty. By merging field-tested operational practices with modern web usability, Paragon EMS Workbench cuts time-to-decision and helps every responder work at the top of their license.

FAQ
Does RescueTempo require an internet connection to work?
No. All data is stored locally in your browser’s memory and optionally persisted via auto‑save. The board functions fully offline. The only time connectivity is helpful is when you email a backup file.
Can I use the app on an iPad or tablet?
Absolutely. The interface is responsive and touch‑friendly. Many commanders run it on iPads mounted in their command vehicle.
How does the version control aspect work?
Every operational change is timestamped internally. You can export a full JSON snapshot at any point, store it as a version, and later import it if you need to roll back or compare states. This creates an immutable audit trail of your emergency operations.
What’s the difference between a call status and the Kanban board?
The call status is a single field on the call record. The Kanban board groups all calls by that status, so you can see at a glance how many calls are 'Dispatched,' 'On Scene,' etc. Updating a call’s status automatically moves it to the appropriate Kanban column.
Can I customize the supply categories or protocol links?
Yes. The supplies table lets you define categories as you add items. The protocol grid is entirely editable; you can add, remove, or modify entries to match your agency’s standing orders.
How do I share the board with multiple team members?
Currently, the board is designed for a single command display per instance. To share, you can export a JSON backup and import it on another device, or mirror the display on a larger screen. Multi‑user synchronisation is on the roadmap.
Is patient health information (PHI) stored?
The board captures call IDs, addresses, and chief complaints, which could be considered PHI depending on your jurisdiction. Since data stays on your device, you control its security. We recommend following your agency’s privacy policies, including encryption of backup files if they contain protected information.
