Oakenshade
About

A software company run by a medic.

Oakenshade LLC is a solutions-based software company based in West Virginia. We build practical apps and tools for anyone who needs them.

Good tools come from knowing the work.

Oakenshade is run by Alex Santana, NRP, a career paramedic with 19 years in EMS and 18 years in the military. The company started by building protocol reference apps that crews could use on a call, and it has grown into building software for anyone with a problem to solve.

Our focus is EMS, Fire, Military and Law Enforcement, because that is the work we know best. But we are not limited to it. Agencies, small businesses and individuals with an idea are all welcome.

Clear scope, honest answers and no jargon.

03

Privacy by default

We collect only what a tool needs, and never ask for patient information.
