Stay positive about this change as it will reshape our industry for the better; however, never let politics, politicians, or the uncertainty of our shirt logos dictate our patient care in the field. We are professionals, and our behavior over the coming months and years will set an example for the next generation of prehospital providers. Strive for consistent and exceptional patient care everyday, and we will have more influence from the street level all the way to the top.


This HAS to be a good thing. Good for the city, for EMS, and ultimately, for the patients. I have spoken with a lot of people about this, and I have heard very little negative talk.
If this indeed unfolds as they say it will, it will be the best thing for EMS in Indianapolis since the invention of drive through liquor stores…
Bryan, thank you for putting this site together!
