For 20 years, All-ALS systems seemed to be the way to go. But is it time to rethink this “essential truth?” Alan Craig recently provided a well researched and convincing presentation supporting the specialization of ALS in EMS. In this session EMS System designers David Shrader and Jonathan Washko provide a different perspective in support of single tier ALS systems.
Objectives of this session include:
- Review the issues related to single tier and multi-tiered EMS systems
- Understand the economic impact of system design choices
- Evaluate staffing models for efficiency and concentration of skills
