Definición

  • Paramedics are medical professionals trained to provide lifesaving, advanced prehospital care at the scene of a disaster or other emergency as part of a comprehensive emergency medical services (EMS) system. Working under the authority of a supervising medical control physician, paramedics provide advanced emergency medical and trauma care in the field, where early assessment and treatment have the greatest impact on patient outcomes if delivered within the “platinum 10 minutes” immediately following an injury.
