Motion Link Beta Cohort Overview

Purpose

The Motion Link Beta Cohort will introduce, test, and refine the platform in real frontline environments to strengthen worker safety, reduce burnout and secondary trauma, improve coordination during field response, enhance CSC (Coordination, Safety, and Communication) across teams, and support consistent documentation and continuity of care. This beta phase also lays the groundwork for creating a scalable public safety infrastructure for frontline practitioners nationwide.
