National EMS Safety Summit registration now open

The summit focuses on the safety of EMS professionals and the risks and dangers they face

DENVER, Colo. — Registration for the National EMS Safety Summit is now open.

The summit will be held August 23-26.

Risk, injury, accidents and errors account for a significant amount of the operating costs and employee turnover that departments experience. Year after year the NEMSSS has provided true leadership education with immediately applicable risk reduction strategies for attendees.

EMS is a dangerous profession that exposes employees to injury risks during all facets of the job. Learning how to identify, quantify, track and reduce the exposure to these risks while managing employee behaviors is a challenge for all safety professionals.

This year, the NEMSS has drawn internationally recognized researcher Dr. Brian McGuire, Peter Dworsky of MONOC, A.J. Heightman editor in chief of JEMS, Lee Varner from the Center for Patient Safety, Bryan Fass from Fit Responder, Thom Dunn, PhD., Paul LeSage and many more.

There are many conferences offering classes on risk and safety, but the NEMSSS is the only four-day event dedicated solely to risk and safety in EMS.

There are still a few vendor spots open.
