Resident physicians specializing in Emergency Medicine need a strong
foundation in the understanding of EMS systems, since these services
significantly impact their current and future day to day practice. In
the Mass General and BWH-based Harvard Affiliated Emergency Medicine
Residency (HAEMR), residents are educated about the scope of practice
of EMS providers, differing EMS system models, on-line medical
direction, and the administrative environment in which EMS systems
function.

First year residents have a 1-week EMS rotation which includes
ride-alongs with ALS/BLS ambulances and Boston MedFlight, a day at the
Boston 911 call and dispatch center, required readings of landmark
articles and current controversial topics in EMS, and opportunities to
attend regional and state EMS policy meetings.

Third- and fourth-year residents provide on-line medical control to
ambulance services covering nine communities and providing
Interfacility transfers. At the beginning of their third year, HAEMR
residents attend a 3-hour course on the basics of on-line medical
control including a review of EMS protocols, legal issues, and case
reviews.

Throughout the four years, HAEMR residents are presented with lectures
on the history and operations of EMS, disaster topics and current
practice and literature. They have the opportunity to attend disaster
exercises, teach paramedic classes and attend community events with
EMS.
