The Praetorian Group And JEMS Communications Re-Launch JEMS.com

Web site will serve as comprehensive information resource for EMS  personnel

SAN FRANCISCO,Ca  – The Praetorian Group, the proven leader in online public safety resources, and Jems Communications, owned by Elsevier Inc. and a leader in public safety publishing, have announced the re-launch of JEMS.com, the online voice for the improvement of patient care in the pre-hospital setting, with continuously updated news, product and training information in an easy-to-use format.

The original Jems.com was the first web site to cater to EMS personnel, leveraging Jems Communications' unrivaled experience to employ a broad approach that covered various aspects of emergency services.
 
Backed by that same legacy, the new JEMS.com is exclusively focused on meeting the needs and interests of the EMS community. The site now has 24/7 tracking of important EMS news and events, with expert, in-depth analysis of the most relevant stories. In addition, JEMS.com now features a robust product section, making it an essential resource for those researching EMS products and services.

JEMS.com also boasts original, insightful columns from the EMS industry’s top minds, as well as monthly and archived content from JEMS and EMS Insider, a monthly newsletter for health-care professionals who administer, plan or deliver emergency medical services. Modeled after PoliceOne.com, the nation's leading Internet-based resource for law enforcement information, and FireRescue1, a leading online resource for fire-rescue personnel, JEMS.com gives EMS professionals and volunteers a single, comprehensive resource for the most current EMS news and technology, as well as timely product, safety and training coverage and analysis.

“JEMS has long been the gold standard for expansive, in-depth coverage of the most important issues in the EMS community,” said Alexander Ford, Founder and CEO of The Praetorian Group. “With JEMS.com, we’ve combined our proven expertise in providing online public safety content with Jems Communications’ unrivaled public safety knowledge and experience to create the definitive online resource for EMS personnel.”

JEMS.com features:
• Daily News Headlines and Analysis
• Original Columns from Respected Industry Experts
• Archived Content from JEMS and EMS Insider
• EMS Product Research Categories
• Job Postings and Product Classifieds from Across North America
• Helpful Safety Tips

“Our partnership with the Praetorian Group on three sites – PoliceOne.com, FireRescue1.com, and now JEMS.com – truly represents an ideal synergy of both organizations’ core strengths, with the public safety community as the beneficiary,” said Jeff Berend, Publisher and General Manager of Jems Communications. “JEMS.com serves the EMS community by providing easy, comprehensive access to a wide array of information, research and insight - all with a quality and relevance befitting the JEMS name.”
