Access to Emergency Services
The Body of European Regulators for Electronic Communications (BEREC) should establish and maintain a single Union wide database of means of access to emergency services that are mandated and are technically feasible to be used by roaming end users in all Member States. Such a database would help national operators, national regulatory authorities and, where applicable, other competent authorities to be informed of all the means of access to emergency services deployed within the Union.

| Hungary | Emergency applications | ÉletMento is the official emergency assistance mobile application of the Hungarian National Ambulance Service (Országos Mentoszolgálat – OMSZ). The application enables users to request emergency medical assistance directly from their smartphone. During an emergency request, the app can transmit accurate location data (GPS-based), user profile information (if provided), and allow real-time text-based communication between the caller and the emergency dispatch centre. The service is designed to support situations where voice communication is difficult or impossible and to improve response time and situational awareness for emergency services. The application can be used with or without prior registration. Registration is optional and allows users to store additional medical information (e.g. known illnesses, allergies), which can be made available to emergency responders during an incident. |
