Lithuania’s Emergency Medical Service will begin working under a new management structure in September, dividing its operations among five regional branches.
The branches will be based in Kaunas, Vilnius, Klaipėda, Šiauliai and Panevėžys. The Kaunas branch will replace the former regional division. Each branch will organize the service’s daily work and coordinate ambulance teams with emergency call centers.
Branch managers will report directly to the service’s general director. The central organization will continue to oversee management and supervision, while two deputy general directors will be responsible for staff capabilities.
The service said it selected the model to work more efficiently and improve the quality of its services.
