Top Issues Facing Responders:
I feel that there are major issues facing responders today. One of these major issues is the lack of personnel that volunteer fire companies/departments are faced with on a daily basis. This is the same factor that volunteer EMS associations are faced with as well. Pay personnel are always available to respond whenever they are dispatched to an incident. Volunteer departments have to rely on citizens that may have previous jobs or commitments that they are attending.

The Baltimore Sun



In a move that could reduce the number of medevac flights in Maryland, state emergency medical officials announced yesterday that ambulance teams will be required to consult with doctors before deciding whether flying some accident victims to a trauma center is better than driving them to a local hospital.

Good evening to you!

Stephen J. Smith "
