30
800 MHz Intro | MCFRS Tech Training BLS: Using EMRC EMRC: Emergency Medical Resource Center (Baltimore) EMRC is used to: Arrange a consult Determine hospital status – Do not ask ECC Reach hospital personnel who aren’t responding
31
800 MHz Intro | MCFRS Tech Training BLS: Using EMRC
32
800 MHz Intro | MCFRS Tech Training BLS: Using EMRC Here’s what you would say: “EMRC, EMRC, this is Montgomery [unit name/number], requesting a consult with [hospital name].” Once you and hospital personnel are on the same talkgroup, say: “I have a priority [#] patient with no medic on board. The patient has taken three rounds of nitro, per protocol, but his pain relief is short and he still ahs chest pain. He’s registered a 7 of 10 on the pain scale and I’m requesting to give him more nitro until the medic arrives.”
