Paramedic Chiefs of Canada – COVID-19 Webinar: National Conversation (Part 3) – April 9th | Recording and Handout
Canadian Paramedic Services National Conversation (Part 3) led by Darren Sandbeck, Senior Provincial Director & Chief Paramedic, Alberta Health Services Emergency Medical Services
Continuing forward from our recent COVID-19 Webinars, “A National Conversation” where we gathered a brief “snapshot” of current provincial and/or national states on a variety of pressing topics. The focus of this webinar was on Patient Management including IAED Protocol 36 and other topics. Representatives from agencies using Protocol 36 in both level 0 – surveillance mode (Snohomish County, Washington) and level 1 (New Orleans, Louisiana).
This conversation will be in the tradition originally started with a conference call among Canadian Paramedic and EMS Leaders sharing information during SARS. This highly successful collaboration of information and best practices sharing approach was continued, with help from FirstWatch, during the H1N1 and Ebola outbreaks. This session will be led by Darren Sandbeck.
