Today’s EMS System
• Every EMS system must develop a system that best meets its needs.
• State- and regional-level EMS systems are often responsible for planning, developing protocols, and establishing standards.
Bledsoe et al., Essentials of Paramedic
![Page 27: TTTTT T EMS 484 EMS management 1 Lecture 1 Dr. Maha Khalid.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012914/5a4d1b797f8b9ab0599b87f2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Medical Direction (1 of 2)
• A medical director is a physician who is legally responsible for all clinical aspects of the system.
Bledsoe et al., Essentials of Paramedic Care: Division 1
![Page 28: TTTTT T EMS 484 EMS management 1 Lecture 1 Dr. Maha Khalid.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012914/5a4d1b797f8b9ab0599b87f2/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Medical Direction (2 of 2)
• The medical director’s role in a system is to:– Educate and train personnel– Participate in personnel and equipment selection– Develop clinical protocols– Participate in quality improvement and problem resolution– Provide direct input into patient care– Interface with the EMS system– Advocate within the medical community– Serve as the “medical conscience” of the EMS system

The medical director can
provide on-line guidance to EMS personnel in the
field. This is known as
on-line medical direction.
