PREHOSPITAL EMERGENCY CARE

Prehospital emergency care standards and the people who deliver it are regulated by local regulations and often overseen by a government department of the Emergency Medical Services or the EMS.

The Pre-hospital Emergency Care Act makes it prohibited to utilize the Universal Emergency Telephone Number and to deliver emergency medical attention prior to arrival at a facility.
