There are three primary emergency services that can be summoned directly by the public:
* [[Police]] — [[law enforcement]], [[criminal investigation]], and maintenance of public order. There are a variety of law enforcement agencies that conduct law enforcement. In the United States, there are State Police and Highway Patrol agencies, Municipal and County police and Sheriff agencies as well as other law enforcement agencies.
* [[Fire department|Fire]] and Rescue Services — [[firefighting]], [[Dangerous goods|hazardous materials response]], EMS response and [[technical rescue]]. These services are provided to those who need help during any type of emergency. Sometimes EMS and technical rescue services are separate as seen below.
* [[Emergency medical services|EMS]] — [[emergency medical services]] and [[technical rescue]]. Emergency Medical Services agencies and Technical Rescue services agencies are responsible for immediate response to medical emergency calls as well as specialized rescue services calls. Many emergency medical services agencies in the United States operate technical rescue services vehicles and equipment and work to help those who need rescue assistance.
Emergency services have one or more dedicated [[emergency telephone number]]s reserved for critical emergency calls. In some countries, one number is used for all the emergency services (e.g. [[9-1-1|911]] in the Americas, [[999 (emergency telephone number)|999]] in the UK, [[112 (emergency telephone number)|112]] in continental Europe). In some countries, each emergency service has its own emergency number. Some fire departments provide emergency medical services along with their primary services.
==Specialized emergency services==
These services can be provided by one of the core services or by a separate government or private body.
* [[Emergency management]] — incident management and coordination.
* [[SWAT|Tactical teams (e.g. SWAT)]] — hostage rescue and counter-terrorism operations and high-risk arrests along with self-defense training to civilians.
* [[Bomb Squad|Hazardous Devices Team/Public Safety Bomb Disposal]]
* Public Safety Dive Teams/Maritime Units
* Canine Units — drug detection, explosive detection, cadaver detection, arson and accelerant detection, search and rescue, evidence search, suspect apprehension, and handler protection.
* Aviation Units — law enforcement, firefighting, emergency medical services and technical rescue, and emergency management functions.
* Fire fighting Units
* [[Dangerous goods|Hazardous Materials]] — hazardous materials mitigation
* [[Search and Rescue]] Responds to emergencies where there is someone in need of assistance
* [[Mountain rescue]]
* [[Cave rescue]]
* [[Coastguard]] responds to emergencies on the ocean and in large bodies of water, also providing law enforcement
*[[Wildfire suppression|Wildland firefighting]]
*[[Military]]
*[[Incident response team]]
*[[Corrections]] Officers that work at prisons and jails enforcing prison rules, and working with prisoners.
*[[Community services]]
==Other emergency services==
[[File:Emergency vehicles on the scene of a severe multi car accident.jpg|thumb|Multiple emergency services work together on the scene of a severe multi-vehicle accident in [[Vaughan|Vaughan, Ontario]]]]
These groups and organizations respond to emergencies and provide other safety-related services either as a part of their on-the-job duties, as part of the main mission of their business or concern, or as part of their hobbies.
* [[Public utilities]] — safeguarding gas, electricity and water, which are all potentially hazardous if infrastructure fails
* [[Public Works]] — assessing and repairing damage to buildings, roads, and bridges; clearing, removing, and disposing of debris from public spaces; restoring utility services; and managing emergency traffic.
* [[Emergency road service]] — provide repair or recovery for disabled or crashed vehicles
* Civilian Traffic Officers — such as operated by [[Highways England]] in the UK to facilitate clearup and [[traffic flow]] at road traffic collisions
* [[Emergency social services]]
* [[Community emergency response team]]s — help organize facilities such as rest centers during large emergencies
* [[Disaster relief]] — such as services provided by the [[Red Cross]] and [[Salvation Army]]
* [[Famine relief]] teams
* [[Tow truck]] Tows damaged vehicles away from scenes and responds to broken down vehicles and wrecks.
* [[Amateur radio]] communications groups — provide communications support during emergencies
* [[Poison control center|Poison Control]] — providing specialist support for poisoning
* [[Animal control officer|Animal control]] — can assist or lead response to emergencies involving animals
* Voluntary medical services — medical & [[first aid]] support. Providers of these services include: [[St. John Ambulance]] / [[Red Cross]] / [[Order of Malta Ambulance Corps]].
* Insurance damage: fixes flooded and fire damaged buildings.
* Tri- service: these units respond to police, medical and fire incidents.
* National Guard- Division of the military working with the homeland
* [[Coroner]] responds to incidents with death and investigates corpses
* [[Zookeepers]]
==Location-specific emergency services==
Some locations have emergency services dedicated to them, and whilst this does not necessarily preclude employees using their skills outside this area (or be used to support other emergency services outside their area), they are primarily focused on the safety or security of a given geographical place.
* [[Lifeguard]]s — charged with reacting to emergencies within their own given remit area, usually a pool, beach or open water area
* [[Park ranger]]s — looking after many emergencies within their given area, including fire, medical and security issues
* [[Ski patrol]] — provides emergency medical care and rescue services within their area, such as a [[ski resort]] or backcountry.
* [[Security guard]]s — protect assets (property, people, etc.) from hazards and enforce security procedures.
*First aid or medic — respond to medical issues and may be hired for businesses or events
==Cooperation==

Effective emergency service management requires agencies from many different services to work closely together and to have open lines of communication. Most services do, or should, have procedures and liaisons in place to ensure this, although absence of these can be severely detrimental to good working. There can sometimes be tension between services for a number of other reasons, including professional versus voluntary crew members, or simply based on area or division.
To aid effective communications, different services may share common practices and protocol for certain large-scale emergencies. In the UK, commonly used shared protocols include [[CHALET]] and [[ETHANE]] while in the US, the [[Department of Homeland Security]] has called for nationwide implementation of the [[National Incident Management System]] (NIMS),<ref>[http://www.fema.gov/emergency/nims/AboutNIMS.shtm Federal Emergency Management System: About NIMS] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110925083514/http://www.fema.gov/emergency/nims/AboutNIMS.shtm |date=2011-09-25 }}</ref> of which the [[Incident Command System]] (ICS) is a part.<ref>[http://www.fema.gov/emergency/nims/IncidentCommandSystem.shtm Federal Emergency Management System: Incident Command System] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110923180917/http://www.fema.gov/emergency/nims/IncidentCommandSystem.shtm |date=2011-09-23 }}</ref>

Smart Emergency Response System (SERS)<ref>Smart Emergency Response System [http://smartamerica.org/teams/smart-emergency-response-system-sers/], team website.</ref> prototype was built in the SmartAmerica Challenge 2013-2014,<ref>SmartAmerica Challenge [http://smartamerica.org/], website.</ref> a United States government initiative. SERS was created by a team of nine organizations. The project was featured at the White House in June 2014 and called an exemplary achievement by Todd Park (U.S. Chief Technology Officer).
The SmartAmerica initiative challenges the participants to build cyber-physical systems as a glimpse of the future to save lives, create jobs, foster businesses, and improve the economy. SERS primarily saves lives. The system provides the survivors and the emergency personnel with information to locate and assist each other during a disaster. SERS allows organization to submit help requests to a MATLAB-based mission center connecting first responders, apps, search-and-rescue dogs, a 6-feet-tall humanoid, robots, drones, and autonomous aircraft and ground vehicles. The command and control center optimizes the available resources to serve every incoming requests and generates an action plan for the mission. The Wi-Fi network is created on the fly by the drones equipped with antennas. In addition, the autonomous rotorcrafts, planes, and ground vehicles are simulated with Simulink and visualized in a 3D environment (Google Earth) to unlock the ability to observe the operations on a mass scale.<ref>Video [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oofHMaEWwP8] Smart Emergency Response System</ref>
==Response time==
[[File:Toronto Fire responding.webm|thumb|Response time is essential to emergency services. Here, a [[Toronto Fire]] truck speeds to a call]]
A common measurement in [[benchmarking]] the efficacy of emergency services is response time, the amount of time that it takes for emergency responders to arrive at the scene of an incident after the emergency response system was activated. Due to the nature of emergencies, fast response times are often a crucial component of the emergency service system.<ref name="6 minutes">{{cite web|last=Davis|first=Robert|title=The price of just a few seconds lost: People die|url=http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/nation/ems-day2-cover.htm|publisher=USA Today|access-date=5 February 2013|date=20 May 2005}}</ref>

<p>Effective emergency service management requires agencies from many different services to work closely together and to have open lines of communication. Most services do, or should, have procedures and liaisons in place to ensure this, although absence of these can be severely detrimental to good working. There can sometimes be tension between services for a number of other reasons, including professional versus voluntary crew members, or simply based on area or division.
To aid effective communications, different services may share common practices and protocol for certain large-scale emergencies. In the UK, commonly used shared protocols include <a href="/enwiki/wiki/CHALET" title="CHALET">CHALET</a> and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/ETHANE" title="ETHANE">ETHANE</a> while in the US, the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Department_of_Homeland_Security" class="mw-redirect" title="Department of Homeland Security">Department of Homeland Security</a> has called for nationwide implementation of the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/National_Incident_Management_System" title="National Incident Management System">National Incident Management System</a> (NIMS),<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1">[1]</a></sup> of which the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Incident_Command_System" title="Incident Command System">Incident Command System</a> (ICS) is a part.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a></sup>

<p>Smart Emergency Response System (SERS)<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3">[3]</a></sup> prototype was built in the SmartAmerica Challenge 2013-2014,<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a></sup> a United States government initiative. SERS was created by a team of nine organizations. The project was featured at the White House in June 2014 and called an exemplary achievement by Todd Park (U.S. Chief Technology Officer).
</p><p>The SmartAmerica initiative challenges the participants to build cyber-physical systems as a glimpse of the future to save lives, create jobs, foster businesses, and improve the economy. SERS primarily saves lives. The system provides the survivors and the emergency personnel with information to locate and assist each other during a disaster. SERS allows organization to submit help requests to a MATLAB-based mission center connecting first responders, apps, search-and-rescue dogs, a 6-feet-tall humanoid, robots, drones, and autonomous aircraft and ground vehicles. The command and control center optimizes the available resources to serve every incoming requests and generates an action plan for the mission. The Wi-Fi network is created on the fly by the drones equipped with antennas. In addition, the autonomous rotorcrafts, planes, and ground vehicles are simulated with Simulink and visualized in a 3D environment (Google Earth) to unlock the ability to observe the operations on a mass scale.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a></sup>
