REV Group has incorporated several product options into its High-Risk Infection Control (HRIC) ambulance designs to further protect patients and EMS personnel from exposure risk. These features are available in HRIC designs from Horton, American Emergency Vehicles (AEV), Leader, Wheeled Coach, Road Rescue, and McCoy-Miller.

Key design elements of these HRIC models include:

Isolation of the cab crew area from the patient compartment
Multi-stage HEPA filters in the HVAC system
A high-capacity negative air system in the patient compartment to control external environmental exposure
Anti-microbial LED lighting in the patient compartment to protect the interior environment from a variety of pathogens
Postable or installed EPA-approved decontamination systems meeting OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) and NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) standards.

These ambulances have been previously delivered to the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services and National Institutes of Health — each model was configured to meet the agency's unique specifications for controlling the spread of infectious disease pathogens.

Are You Tracking Your Fleet's True Total Cost of Ownership?

Bobit Business Media surveyed 190 fleet professionals and found that while most fleets are tracking costs, fragmented systems and data gaps are keeping true TCO visibility out of reach. With rising pressure to control spend in an increasingly volatile environment, the gap between what fleets think they know and what the data actually shows is wider than you might expect. See how your peers are managing costs today and where the industry still has room to improve.

Cover of a whitepaper titled “The Hidden Costs of Departmentally Assigned Vehicles on Your Fleet” featuring a black fleet vehicle driving on a road at sunset. Subheadline reads: “Discover how your fleet can reduce costs and minimize risk by implementing vehicle sharing.” The document focuses on fleet optimization, vehicle sharing, cost reduction, utilization tracking, and risk management for fleet operations.

The Fleet Efficiency Gap: Where Budgets, Utilization & Risk Collide

Departmentally assigned vehicles often create hidden costs through underutilization, poor visibility, and increased administrative burden. This whitepaper explores how shared motor pool strategies help fleets reduce costs, improve accountability, and optimize vehicle utilization.
