ACAP has an abiding professional interest in policy matters that affect the delivery of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and is uniquely positioned to provide insights into the role of EMS in the continuum of health care.
In preparing this submission ACAP has placed a focus on identifying issues of broad policy significance as befits the initial stages of enquiry by the National Health and Hospitals Reform Committee (NHHRC). These should be the topic of further in-depth research culminating in a number of ‘white papers’ for informed debate and community input for an appropriate period of time before determination of major policies.
