Team Name: Hazmat
Team Hazmat will be
working with the Society for Total Emergency
Programs (STEP) Council of the Genesee Region on the annual EMS
Directory produced by STEP each year. The EMS Directory is designed to
"facilitate Emergency Medical Services responses and emergency
preparedness". The Directory is broken up into four sections that
contain
lists of local EMS organizations, area doctors, governmental
organizations,
medical protocols, ambulance codes, and other information that would be
helpful to those in an EMS related profession. Currently the
Directory is
created each year through a human and paper intensive process that
involves
expensive and time consuming mailings and tedious manual entry of
information. In the short term, the EMS Directory software by Team
Hazmat
will be a tool that saves the STEP Council time, money, and energy in
the
compilation, generation, and distribution of the EMS Directory. In the
long
term, the STEP Council hopes that the directory creation process can be
extended beyond the county level, to the state and federal level,
including a
database. The EMSDirectory software will be designed with this long term
vision in mind.
