Jack Stout Archive at the National EMS Museum

FirstWatch and the Academy of International Mobile Healthcare Integration have partnered to preserve the written legacy of the late EMS visionary Jack Stout. The partnership funded an online archive hosted by The National EMS Museum, making more than 100 of Stout’s articles and essays available to the public. Many of them appeared in JEMS, the Journal of Emergency Medical Services, beginning with his pivotal series introducing the concepts of high-performance EMS in the May 1980 edition.
