It is calculated by dividing the number of hours a crew spends transporting patients by the total hours worked during a shift. Unit Hour – One hour of service by fully equipped and staffed ambulance assigned to a call or available for dispatch. Unit Hour Utilization (UHU) Ratio – A measurement of how hard and how effectively the system is working. It is calculated by dividing the number of responses initiated during a given period of time, by the number of unit hours (hours of service) produced during the same period of time. Special event coverage and certain other classes of activity are excluded from these calculations. Urban (Response Area)- The term used to denote a response area that consists of grids that are located within the boundaries of an incorporated city, a contiguous and parallel grid adjacent to a grid that is located within the boundaries of an incorporated city, or is adjacent to a grid that abuts a grid previously identified that meets urban criteria, and that meets the population density of greater than 100 persons per square mile; any grid meeting population density criteria for suburban, rural, or wilderness designation that is surrounded on three sides by an urban grid; and connected by more than one grid to an adjacent response area meeting urban criteria.

Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) – A structure for coordination between the government and local emergency response organizations. Standard of Care – The combined compilation of all priority-dispatching protocols, pre-arrival instruction protocols, medical protocols, protocols for selecting destination hospitals, standards for certification of pre-hospital personnel, as well as standards governing requirements for on- board medical equipment and supplies, and licensing of ambulance services and first responder agencies. The System Standard of Care simultaneously serves as both a regulatory and contractual standard. Suburban (Response Area)-The term used to denote a response area that consists of grids that are contiguous and parallel to an urban grid; a contiguous and parallel grid adjacent to a grid previously identified as suburban and meeting the population density of 51 to 99 persons per square mile; and connected by more than one grid to an adjacent response area meeting suburban criteria. System Status Management - A management tool to define the "unit hours" of production time, their positioning and allocation, by hour and day of week to best meet demand patterns. System Status Plan (SSP) – A planned protocol or algorithm governing the deployment and event-driven redeployment of system resources, both geographically and by time of day/day of week. Every system has a system status plan. The plan may or may not be written, elaborate or simple, efficient or wasteful, effective or dangerous. Transport Unit Hour Utilization- A measurement of how hard and how effectively system crews are working. It is calculated by dividing the number of hours a crew spends transporting patients by the total hours worked during a shift. Unit Hour – One hour of service by fully equipped and staffed ambulance assigned to a call or available for dispatch. Unit Hour Utilization (UHU) Ratio – A measurement of how hard and how effectively the system is working. It is calculated by dividing the number of responses initiated during a given period of time, by the number of unit hours (hours of service) produced during the same period of time. Special event coverage and certain other classes of activity are excluded from these calculations. Urban (Response Area)- The term used to denote a response area that consists of grids that are located within the boundaries of an incorporated city, a contiguous and parallel grid adjacent to a grid that is located within the boundaries of an incorporated city, or is adjacent to a grid that abuts a grid previously identified that meets urban criteria, and that meets the population density of greater than 100 persons per square mile; any grid meeting population density criteria for suburban, rural, or wilderness designation that is surrounded on three sides by an urban grid; and connected by more than one grid to an adjacent response area meeting urban criteria.
