Show Notes
After seeing a recent JEMS article we had to discuss the idea of an armed EMS provider. This is a can of worms that if opened gives us more questions then answers. We tackle trust and training, need vs desire, agency or individual, cost and legal, and many other subjects in this hot button topic. What is your opinion? Should EMS providers be armed for their protection and the protection of their patient? Hear from Mike Turek (AEMT-P, CIC), Emily Yates (RN, EMT-B) & Gerard Cuomo (AEMT-P).
