In 2020, California required San Francisco to consider equity in access to resources such as housing, transportation, and emergency services as it re-opened its economy post-pandemic. Using a public dataset maintained by the San Francisco Fire Department of every call received related to emergency response from January 2003 to April 2021, we calculated the response times and distances to the closest of 48 fire stations and 14 local emergency rooms. We used logistic regression to determine the probability of meeting the averages of response time, distance from a fire station, and distance to an emergency room based on the median income bracket of a ZIP code based on IRS statement of income data. ZIP codes in the lowest bracket ($25,000-$50,000 annually) consistently had the lowest probability of meeting average response metrics. This was most notable for distances to emergency rooms, where calls from ZIP codes in the lowest income bracket had an 11.5% chance of being within the citys average distance (1 mile) of an emergency room, while the next lowest probability (for the income bracket of $100,000-$200,000 annually) was 75.9%. As San Francisco considers equity as a part of Californias Blueprint for a Safer Economy, it should evaluate the distribution of access to emergency services.

Good communication is essential within teams dealing with emergency situations. In this paper we look at communications within a resuscitation team performing cardio-pulmonary resuscitation. Communication underpins efficient collaboration, joint coor
We study the estimation of the probability distribution of individual patient waiting times in an emergency department (ED). Our feature-rich modelling allows for dynamic updating and refinement of waiting time estimates as patient- and ED-specific i
Emergency department (ED) crowding has been an increasing problem worldwide. Prior research has identified factors that contribute to ED crowding. However, the relationships between these remain incompletely understood. This studys objective was to a
We investigate the efficacy of surgical versus non-surgical management for two gastrointestinal conditions, colitis and diverticulitis, using observational data. We deploy an instrumental variable design with surgeons tendencies to operate as an inst
Polarimetric SAR data has the characteristics of all-weather, all-time and so on, which is widely used in many fields. However, the data of annotation is relatively small, which is not conducive to our research. In this paper, we have collected five
