I’m your host, Jamie Davis the Podmedic and I’d like to welcome you to this week’s show. In this week’s EMS news items we look at how some states’ educational policies are working to make our jobs easier.<br> Then in this week’s special tip segment from the Physio-Control podcast studio at EMS Today 2015 we have have an interview with EMS 10 Awardee Kevin Callopy from North Carolina. He has created a code sepsis program that is changing the way his EMS teams identify, treat and transport EMS sepsis patients. How does he do it and what can you do to emulate it? We’ll find out later in the show after the news.<br> Contact the MedicCast<br> If you want to get back in touch with me, make sure you do so.
