Dear All At the ambulance meeting in Keno on January 8 several people came away with assignments. My assignment was to confer with the state of California EMS Authority and our policies regarding the scope of practice that Oregon based personnel could use when responding into California. I, along with our Medical Director and clinical staff have had a number of discussions with the state staff and have reviewed pertinent regulations and other documents on the matter. This is not an easy task as there is no one size fits all answer for all levels of training. My assignment was to be completed in two weeks. Today marks two weeks, and while we are narrowing in on an answer, it is not conclusive. Please bear with me as we press forward. Thank you for your patience. If you have specific questions, please contact me. Dan Spiess 530 229-3979 dspiess@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
