CSEMS Local Protocol
Program |
|
| The Central
Shenandoah EMS Council Local Protocol Program provides instruction
to EMS providers in the region on specific local protocols that
differ from the 1994 release of the Emergency Medical
Technician-Basic: National Standard Curriculum and the 1995 release
of the First Responder: National Standard Curriculum. Modules of the
curriculum include use of automatic external defibrillators (AED),
Combitube airway, EpiPen® Auto-Injector, glucose monitoring, use of
oral glucose and use of glucagon, and administration of aspirin for
cardiac emergencies. The goal of the program is to have adequately
trained BLS providers who can provide advanced interventions for
critical patients.
Students attending a Local Protocol
program shall be certified as EMT-Basic or higher for all modules
except the Early Defibrillation (AED) module. In addition to
EMT-Basic providers, First Responder providers are required to
attend only the Early Defibrillation (AED) module.
