One dispatch hub, three national systems.
Each country manages its own national emergency declarations. EmergencyNA sits alongside all three, so equipment and crews can move to wherever the declared emergency actually is — including across a border.
Dashed lines represent direct cross-border resource combination between two countries; solid lines run through the EmergencyNA dispatch hub. EmergencyNA is a private network — it tracks and responds around each system's declarations rather than acting on their behalf.
Who declares, and who we align to.
Each country's national emergency system works differently. EmergencyNA's monitoring and request intake are set up around each one.
| Country | National system | What triggers a response |
|---|---|---|
| United States | FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) | Presidential emergency or major disaster declaration |
| Canada | Public Safety Canada — Government Operations Centre | Federal activation coordinating provincial/territorial response to an event of national significance |
| Mexico | SINAPROC (Sistema Nacional de Protección Civil), technical arm CENAPRED | National civil protection declaration under the Secretaría de Gobernación |
An ambulance doesn't need a passport to save a life.
A disaster near a border region often affects two countries at once, and equipment staged just across that border can arrive faster than equipment from the other side of the requesting country. EmergencyNA's tri-national inventory is built around that reality.
Combined ambulance response
When a declared emergency near the US–Mexico or US–Canada border exceeds one side's ambulance capacity, EmergencyNA can route partner ambulances from across the border into the same coordinated response.
Shared equipment staging
Generators and ALS/BLS equipment staged near a border region can serve either country, cutting the time between declaration and delivery.
