Regional EMS Protocols

[Guest emtb23]

Does Westchester have any significant BLS protocol changes from the NYS ones? I can't find anything on the remsco website.

Does a separate protocol document exist?

Westchester uses NYS BLS protocol, however they do have special procedure protocol which discusses Albuterol, Epi-Pens, Mark 1 kits, and Respriotory Assessment. Thing is, these protocol only pretain to those agencies that are registered/certified to carry Albuterol/Mark 1 kits and those providers trained in their use. Aside from those things, NYS BLS protocol is what we operate under.
