“A dispatcher’s job is counted by seconds,” says Liang Ruimei,a dispatcher in the center.She has been working in the center since it was started in 2007.“We must answer the phone in 3 seconds,get clear information about the patient in 60 seconds and dispatch(调度) emergency medical workers in 3 minutes at most.If we save one second,the patient may have a better chance to live.”
