In the midst of recent challenges, this initiative shines as one of the few accomplishments we can take pride in. https://lnkd.in/eWUxWqMV

It’s #EMSWEEK2024! 50 years ago, a presidential proclamation called on the nation to support efforts to improve emergency medical care across the country. It also established the first national EMS Week, a tradition we proudly continue today. Much has changed since 1974, yet there is still much we can learn from those trailblazing professionals who helped EMS evolve into the sophisticated branch of medicine it is today. Their dedication, commitment and sacrifice inspire us to take bold steps of our own, to continue to seek out ways to better serve our patients and our communities. This year, we celebrate EMS Week by honoring our past—by taking a pause to recognize the contributions of each generation, the people who dreamed that we could save more lives and have less suffering, and then found ways to make it happen. EMS Week is never just about the past, however. It’s also about inspiring the EMS professionals just starting out and the young people who haven’t even discovered EMS yet! It’s about learning from the challenges and building on the successes of the last five decades. It’s about forging our future—a future in which the next generation has the tools they need to deliver compassionate care and alleviate suffering in communities everywhere. #insidemchd

Honoring Our Past. Forging Our Future. This week we celebrate our Brothers & Sisters in EMS and our very own EMS professionals here at Code Blue Resources!!!

How many lives will be saved with this brilliant idea. So simple, so effective.

Sharing this informative webinar coming up on May 23rd - learn about the movement sweeping #EMS agencies across the U.S. in carrying whole blood, and the logistics and products required to be successful.

Task shifting in healthcare is inevitable. As demand increases and the served population's needs change, so too must policy and education evolve. If the HHS secretary designates a master's level clinically-trained paramedic as a practitioner in a year (as is their authority under the Social Security Act), I will build a Master of Paramedicine program in five years at an institution of higher learning that shares my vision. Mark my words. #highereducation #paramedicine #healthcare #ems #paramedic #emt
