Louisiana Ambulance Alliance Selects Squire Tech Solutions for Satellite-Based Mobile Communications

Satellite Solutions Provider Adds Critical Internet, Data, and Voice Communications to LRAA Emergency Trailers

Squire Tech Solutions, LLC, a satellite-based communications service provider of voice, video and data solutions, announced completion of integration for commercial-grade voice and data systems with four Louisiana Rural Ambulance Alliance EMS Trailers.

The Louisiana Rural Ambulance Alliance (LRAA), a coalition of EMS providers from rural parishes, works together to train, support, and strengthen individual EMS organizations. One resource is the fleet of mobile command trailers that can be deployed anywhere in the state with fully integrated communications.

“The LRAA provides a critical service to the rural EMS personnel in Louisiana,” said Rusty Puckett, VP of Operations for Squire Tech Solutions. “By adding state-of-the art satellite communications to their existing suite of command trailers, the alliance can offer a premium service to their constituents when they respond to an event.”

“Our decision to use Squire Tech Solutions to add satellite communications to our fleet of trailers is already paying dividends to our alliance members,” says Donna Newchurch, CEO of the LRAA. “Soon after the first trailer was completed, we deployed it to Jena, Louisiana in response to the large crowds gathering for the ‘Jena Six’ hearings. Most people, including other response organizations, were having trouble using cell phones because of the large volume of users in one concentrated area. Our phones and high-speed Internet worked seamlessly in an environment that we know was causing other people all kinds of communication problems.”

LRAA will store command trailers in strategically placed locations throughout the state. In the event of a major disaster or incident, the closest trailer(s) can be deployed to provide a mobile work site for alliance members. Each trailer will receive two voice lines, high-speed Internet, and industrial strength wireless capabilities.
