Abstract
|
|
|
Since 2003, the national evaluation program for emergency medical centers (EMCs) has been managed by the Central Emergency Medical center which is controlled by the Ministry of Health and Welfare. Although the evaluation system for EMC has contributed to the development of the structure of emergency centers and the expansion of emergency resources (emergency medical person and equipment), it has some limitations in terms of quality control for both EMCs and emergency medical systems. One of the purposes of the evaluation program is to assess the performance of EMC in different levels. However, both regional and local emergency centers have same role that is offering of final treatment to severe emergency patients. There is no role for local emergency rooms in the emergency care of patients.
