Technology in ES: A Misnomer?
• Do the methodologies of CAP Emergency Services lend themselves to the use of Technology?
• Can technology be useful enough to justify the time and money spent in new equipment and training?
• At each level, decisions must be made to determine how much time and money will be spent on technology
• Cost/Benefit analysis must be made

Problems and Issues
• For all of its benefits, technology does present unique problems
• These problems are inherent to technology in all applications, not just CAP ES
• Some problems can be solved, but some must be sidestepped
• Paper / pencil backup is still needed.

The Human Element
• Technology for technology’s sake– Technology applications must make SAR more efficient– Technology for its own sake costs much, but provides little
benefit
• The human element– Many ES personnel do not like computers, technology, etc.– “We’ve done it this way for years” mentality– Must demonstrate that technology can be used to make us
more efficient
