PHP EMS Tools 2.0

PHP EMS Tools project is a software for volunteer and small paid emergency medical services (EMS) organizations that provides crew scheduling, roster maintenance and printing, rig checks, maintenance reports, and other facilities in an easy-to-use Web-based package.

PHP EMS Tool is a software package for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) agencies. It allows you to maintain a monthly crew schedule, roster, record of apparatus checks, address book, count your members monthly hours, and more. It is designed to be installed on a server on the local network at your headquarters. It *can* be installed on an internet-based host, but this is not suggested, as security is very lax in the current version - it is designed to stop members from casually doing things they shouldnt, not to protect your server from the dangers of the Internet.

The current version incorporates a feature to allow the schedule, roster, and hours count to be visible from the Internet, when configured properly.

PHP EMS Tools is totally free, and open source. It is programmed in the PHP language, which most web servers support. To run PHP EMS Tools, you will need a web server (Apache recommended), the MySQL database server, PHP, and a few other pieces of software. PHP EMS Tools *should* run under any operating system that supports these packages, but is designed to be run under Linux (which is also 100% free and open source). To install PHP EMS Tools, you will need root access to the server, or will need to get the systems administrator to create a database and users for you.
