Abstract

Ambulance is a transport service for patients to the hospital. In order to minimize the risk level for patients, the ambulance should arrive at the incident site within the targeted time. This is why a mathematical method application can solve the issue by selecting the rigth route. The Bellman-Ford algorithm is an algorithm that is often used in solving a problem, i.e., finding the shortest route. This algorithm uses a vertex as a starting point and is used as a single source to calculate the shortest distance on a weighted graph. Findings reveal that the best route using the Bellman-Ford algorithm from samples that are obtained from several hospitals and health centers in Gorontalo city is 1-2-3-9-10-11-14-15 where the starting point is the Regional Hospital of Otanaha, and the destination point is the regional hospital of Prof. Dr. H. Aloe Saboe, and 1-3-4-10-11-12 where the starting point is the Health Center of Kota Selatan and the destination point is the Regional Hospital of Prof. Dr. H. Aloe Saboe.
