Abstract

Physician involvement in developing a mobile emergency system should include planning, public education, training of support personnel, staffing of emergency departments and “on-line” supervision of EMTs and paramedic personnel. A qualified emergency physician must be available for radio consultation. The physician must be familiar with community resources cognizant of the paramedics' abilities and problems, and comfortable in the use of communications equipment. The protocols for such communication are discussed and examples of intercommunication between physician and paramedic are furnished.
