EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES PROJECT

SERVICES MEDICANX D'URGENCE

Despite efforts toward greater road and vehicular safety and driver education programs, vehicular crashes occur in great numbers and deaths and injuries are not being significantly reduced. The report concerns itself with the way the state-of-the-art of emergency medical care can be more fully applied to aid victims at road crash sites and thereafter until they reach definitive medical care in a hospital.
