Injuries and road accidents result in more than 5 million deaths worldwide, the majority (>4.5 million) of which occur in low-income countries such as Bangladesh, where there is no nationally developed emergency medical system (EMS) to provide urgent medical care to people on the streets. In these countries, it is estimated that more than 85% of accident victims die before they ever reach the hospital, many of whom could have been saved if they had faster access to basic medical care at the scene of the accident. CriticaLink was founded in 2014 as a non-profit social business with the goal of saving lives in Bangladesh by training volunteer First Responders in basic emergency medical skills (bleeding control, splinting of fractures, triage, burn care, CPR, ect.) and using an innovative, location-based mobile network to quickly dispatch the closest volunteers to the scene of an accident to provide help to injured citizens.
