The UBMD EMS Division has scheduled three ePCR informational seminars in Erie County. The purpose of the in-person seminars is to explain the upcoming changes, how your agency may be affected and offer the tools necessary to better prepare for transition.
The seminars are intended for services who have not yet decided on an ePCR platform and/or e-PCR transition date as well as those who are unsure if/how their service may be affected by the upcoming changes.
To register, please email your name and agency affiliation: UBMDEMS@buffalo.edu
