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.
