YEREVAN, DECEMBER 13, NOYAN TAPAN. It is envisaged to implement
program "Refreshment of Communication Means and Computerization of
1-03 Service at the First Aid CJSC of Yerevan Mayor’s Office in
2007. Noyan Tapan correspondent was informed about it by company
Director Artyom Petrosian. He said that the program was worked out
jointly with Yerevan Research Institute of Communication Means as early
as in 2003, but due to lack of financing it has not been implemented
up to present. In A.Petrosian’s words, next year the program worth
130 thousand USD will be implemented either with state budget’s
financing or with credit means. As the company director estimated,
the introduction of new communication system will enable to respond
to calls more quickly. In A.Petrosian’s words, currently calls are
responded within three minutes, while the new system will reduce it
by 1.5 minutes. "The call will be at once registered by a computer
and through the respective program it will be decided what sub-station
and what doctors’ brigade should respond to it," A.Petrosian said. By
the program’s second stage special GPRS devices will be installed in
ambulance cars, by means of which it will be possible to watch cars’
location in the city and to determine the shortest way of reaching
the addressee.
