Vision and Mission Statement

Mission Statement: To assist and guide local EMS and trauma care providers in the coordination and improvement of emergency medical services and injury/illness prevention and public education in the West Region.

We envision a tenable regional EMS and Trauma Care System with a plan that:

  • Keeps patient care and interests the number one priority

  • Recognizes the value of prevention and public education to decrease trauma/cardiac/stroke-related morbidity and mortality

  • Preserves local integrity and authority in coordination with inter/intra-regional agreements

Through the STRATEGIC PLAN the West Region EMS and Trauma Care Council will work as a non-partisan facilitator, coordinator, and resource for regional EMS issues to achieve the Council mission.
