You can attribute most helicopter EMS (emergency medical service) accidents and many ground ambulance accidents to human factors and systems designs that lead to poor decision-making. Management commitment is vital to maintain a culture that supports risk assessment, accountability, professionalism and organizational dynamics. This volume by The Commission on Accreditation of Medical Transport Systems (CAMTS) addresses this need. It offers insights and solutions that can be used by EMS, Fire and Rescue, public and private services, and professional emergency and transport professionals worldwi
