Invitation to Provide Feedback in 2021 Field Triage Guidelines Revision

The American College of Surgeons (ACS), with support from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, is leading the revision of the 2011 Field Triage Guidelines. As a part of the revision process, the ACS seeks input on the current guidelines from a broad group of EMS stakeholders, at all levels and in all roles. To obtain insight into current use and perceived strengths and challenges of the current guidelines, the ACS has developed an EMS Stakeholder Feedback Tool.

The American College of Surgeons is requesting leadership from key partner organizations, not only use the link to provide feedback, but also forward this tool link onto your membership. To participate, please click HERE.
