Implementation Guide to EMS Agenda for the Future
The EMS Agenda for the Future: Implementation Guide is intended to be a tool for EMS providers, administrators and medical directors; health care providers, administrators and payers; public health and safety officials, local, state and federal government officials; organization and community leaders; and all other entities and people with a potential interest or influence on the structure or function of our nation’s system for providing emergency medical care. We all must be committed to an EMS system that is accessible, reliable, and that contributes to the health of our communities. The EMS Agenda for the Future: Implementation Guide is a call for action to join partnerships that will lead to the exploration of possibilities for the future of EMS—a crucial part of the health care system and the public’s emergency medical safety net.
