State wide protocols

[Guest guest]

As an example of how some states do ALS protocols and the like and to

stimulate discussion given the fact that stuff like this is what we could in

theory

see as a result of documents such as the National EMS Scope of practice

(_http://www.emsscopeofpractice.org/_ (http://www.emsscopeofpractice.org/) )

These are DRAFT ALS Protocols from Pennsylvania. Understand that while Texas

is a large state even compared to Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania is by and far

one of the largest land mass states in the lower 48 AND it is very diverse in

terms of it's urban to rural mix. PA has a ton of areas that could easily

mimic the demographics of parts of Texas in terms of makeup etc. many of my

friends throughout PA are screaming how a statewide protocol can't work due to

this type of diversity etc. (sound familiar?)

You might even look at Arizona Protocols as well.There

is a wealth of interesting stuff there.
