A Health Crisis Hiding In Plain Sight
When we think of fate, we see it as almost supernatural and a destined path regardless of your efforts to change it. Being a first responder often puts you in harms way and exposes you to elements that the everyday individual wouldn't normally encounter.
First Responders believe its their calling, their destiny to help and care for others. It is that mindset that gives credence to first responders believing that physical and mental well-being are collateral damage of their chosen path.
Exposure to such a line of work makes first responders 3x more likely to develop cancer, abuse substances, develop mental health issues or experience premature heart attacks. Even though the facts are known, first responders still choose to do the job and accept those risks.
How We Work Towards A Better Future
Most changes in public safety occur from data collected over time or if there is an incident that creates a safety precedent for future encounters. These are the main methods for truly making an impact on first responders and shifting culture towards personal well-being to prevent future illnesses or lessen the affects of the job. Not only do we need data, but we need to do it in a way that does not hinder the first responder from performing their duties.
We do this by collecting data in real-time through wearables, health apps and other environmental monitoring devices that are then measured against safety thresholds set by our machine learning algothrim. These results can be shared with your doctor to improve your longevity on and off the job.
Not only does this data impact your personal life, but it also supports further research and health studies that will impact public safety as a whole immediately and in the future.
