SAFETY ADVICE FROM EMS (SAFE) - TRAFFIC SAFETY LESSON PLANS FOR EMS, FIRE & RESCUE PERSONNEL

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) sponsored development of a manual to help Emergency Medical Services (EMS) providers and other medical or health professionals in rural and urban areas to educate the public on how to prevent serious injuries. The manual, "Safety Advice from EMS (SAFE): A Guide to Injury Prevention", is now available. The SAFE manual was designed to make it easy for EMS personnel to talk with the public on selected traffic safety topics, including occupant protection, impaired driving, speed, yielding to emergency vehicles, and bicycle and pedestrian safety. The lesson plans contained in the manual provide the materials needed to get started.
