The Commission on Accreditation of Medical Transport Systems
(CAMTS) has been accrediting air and ground transport services
since 1991. One of the most significant needs the Commission has
recognized is to assist transport services in creating a culture
that supports safety and quality for both crews and patients. Most
of the helicopter EMS (emergency medical service) accidents and
many ground ambulance accidents can be attributed to human factors
and systems designs that lead to poor decision-making. Management
commitment is vital to create and maintain a culture that supports
risk assessment, accountability, professionalism and organizational
dynamics. This reference book has been created by CAMTS to address
this need directly and comprehensively. It offers a groundbreaking
collection of expert insights and practical solutions that can be
used by EMS, Fire and Rescue, public and private services, and
professional emergency and transport professionals worldwide.
Quoting from the foreword written by the late Robert L. Helmreich,
Professor Emeritus of Psychology at The University of Texas Human
Factors Research Project, 'This is an important book which should
be required reading for everyone involved in patient transport,
from managers and dispatchers to those at the sharp end... The
experienced and able authors and editors of this work use culture
as the overarching concept needed to maximize safety while
delivering patients expeditiously.'
