SEMSP would allow for formal recognition and accreditation of EMS physicians. As the number of formally accredited EMS physicians increases, we would then be able to recommend to the Ministry of Health regarding legislation of certain EMS key roles (for example, an Ambulance Medical Director). This would establish high standards and improve credibility of EMS care locally.
