I have been hearing these buzz words Crew Resource Management (CRM) lately. After reading the basis of CRM I see parallels to our work in EMS and how the CRM process can help EMTs and paramedics do a better job. CRM started in the military and in aviation industry as a way of reducing errors in flight. Obviously when a plan crashes the stakes are very high and affect hundreds of lives.
Communications is a key area that directly affects patient care. I found that “thinking out loud was a great strategy when working as a medic for sharing ideas. Often my partner and I would be thinking the same thing and benefit from the open communication. The American Heart Association refers to this as a Constructive Intervention. Please post your comments about CRM Communication below.

On April 28, 2011 at 7:00 est I will be giving a presentation on the Management of mass casualty incidents (MCI)in the real world. Through a career of working as a medic, supervisor and educator I have honed a system that makes transitioning form one to many patients in a logical manner.
When we are dispatched to a MCI EMS providers hesitate because we find MCIs to be different and we are no longer in charge. During this Webinar I will show you how to bridge the transition from caring for one to many patients. This course is the real deal.
