Safety Innovation Update
New Opportunity for ambulance safety innovators:
Hands on Innovation Ambulance Workshop and Design Clinic
The EMS Safety Foundation held its first and hands on landmark Workshop event in Dallas on October 2nd, 2010, immediately following EMS Expo, hosted by Careflite . This Workshop brought technical experts in automotive safety and ergonomics together with innovators in EMS operations and ambulance manufacture. Attendance was packed, and a very dynamic and valuable experience for all.
Those non-members of the EMS Safety Foundation who participated in the"Hands-on Vehicle Innovation Workshop" and "Vehicle Design Clinic" - and joined in Post EMS Expo 2010 Workshop with the EMS Safety Foundation Innovation Consortium and their Technical Experts - found the activities of the Foundation eye opening, valuable and of great interest.
