Comments on EMS Culture of Safety Coverage
Jamie and Carissa,
Thanks for your outstanding coverage of the EMS Culture of Safety Conference. Attention to safety, from field providers to policy makers, has increased exponentially in the last few years. I am looking forward to your ongoing coverage of this important effort.
Thanks for the comment, Greg. I think it’s vital that this initiative move forward. It ties successful programs from other professions with proven techniques and strategies from other parts of the health care system. The challenge now is keeping this initiative in the forefront of providers’ minds moving forward.
