EMS On The Hill Day, April 20, Washington, D.C.
NAEMT is also hosting its annual EMS On The Hill Day April 20 (briefing April 19) in Washington, D.C.  Participates personally meet with their U.S. Senators, House Representative and their Congressional staff.  The event is organized to ensure that Congress fully understands EMS' diverse role — from supporting healthcare systems by managing and redirecting non-emergent patients, to responding to disasters, accidents and other calls for skilled emergency medical care.  >> Click for EMS On The Hill Day information.
