American College of Surgeons (ACS) Trauma System Consultation

Between September 1, 2015 and September 4, 2015 the Office of EMS underwent a state trauma system assessment.  The ACS utilizes the Model Trauma System Planning and Evaluation guide that utilizes a public health approach to trauma system development and maintenance.
