If they had called Madison EMS, I believe he would have had to go to their
facility for stabilization. In St. Francois County, usually it is the patients
preference for the most part. As long as it is in county, with the exception of
the northern most part then they can take them to Jefferson Memorial. Also,
you can call an ambulance and be treated at the scene, and then choose not to
be transported.

It is up to the patient as long as he/she is able to make that decision. If
they are unconscious or otherwise unable, then it is up to the EMS
personnel.
The point being, that there were medical facilities very close to where the
accident occurred.

Now, Dru, explain to me something. Is it up to the nearest hospital or the
EMT that picks where the patient goes? I think someone on this list works at
Parkland Health Center in Farmington.
