SLIDE 51 Where do we go from here?
- EMS not measuring until providers are moved to
NEMSIS 3.4 due to data elements involved.
– Look at internal data
- Work with ambulance providers
– Evaluate the process of EMS offload – Look for areas of improvement – Use the tool: “Toolkit to Reduce Ambulance Patient Offload Delays in the Emergency Department”
