EMT-Basic Pre-Hospital Treatment Guidelines
EMT-Basic Pre-Hospital Treatment Guidelines 3rd Edition South Dakota Department of Public Safety Emergency Medical Services 118 West Capitol Avenue Pierre, South Dakota 57501-2536. Introduction The Pre-Hospital Treatment Guidelines were developed to establish standards of care which are consistent throughout the State of South Dakota, and to provide the EMS provider with a quick field reference. Users of these Guidelines are assumed to have knowledge of the more detailed and basic patient care principles found in EMS textbooks and literature appropriate to the EMS provider's level of certification. These Guidelines are intended to reflect the current Treatment Guidelines for the EMT. These Guidelines are not intended to be absolute Treatment doctrines, but rather Guidelines which have sufficient flexibility to meet the complex cases presented to the Emergency Medical Technician in the field.
