Hi to all fellow collegues all over the world. Thought it would be fun to start a thread.
All over the world there are different EMS systems.. In the USA there's the emt-B/paramedic system, here in belgium poorly trained ambulance-personnel with ALS back up from a medical team (ER doc + Nurse with a ER and intensive care degree), in holland there's a ambulance driver + a specially trainend ambulance nurse and 4 trauma helicopters (doc+nurse) spreid over the country in case the ambulance nurse needs back up. In germany highly trainend ambulance personnel with back up from a doctor (notartz), and so on..
So guys give me your idea's about the different systems, pro's vs contra's, what's good what's not good, etc...
