EMS 4320 System Design Project
Description
Incorporates key elements of system design for emergency medical services (EMS) to facilitate preparation of a program proposal. Students discuss how various components of program development contribute to an eventual success of their proposals. Students incorporate academic and professional research into a final proposal that synthesizes program outcomes and may be used for future contributions or implementation in EMS.
Outcomes
- Identify an EMS-related program for construction of a proposal that could be submitted to administrators or in response to a request for proposal (RFP).
- Identify and incorporate EMS-related research in a program proposal.
- Identify and incorporate financial costs and potential funding sources for the proposal.
- Identify specific policies, procedures, or protocols that are needed to implement the program.
- Research potential legal or regulatory issues that must be addressed for program implementation.
- Describe the type of risk associated with the program.
- Describe training or education needs for implementation of the program.
- Identify community partners and stakeholders that are needed for program success.
- Develop an EMS-related program proposal.
