Why Should You Care?
As an EMS provider, you owe your community the highest quality service possible.
Patients assume a competent provider equipped to meet their needs will show up in a timely manner.
For the person in need, failure is not an option.
Quality is…
Delivering the service your community, customers and patients want and need, every time.
Quality is NOT…
… just a buzzword!

People issues should be addressed with the individual.
