“This accreditation validates EMSA’s vital processes and provides an added level of assurance for the community that they have the right people on the job,” said Johna Easley, President and CEO of EMSA. “The commitment of our 600 plus team members is the driving force behind the organization’s success.”
EMSA was evaluated on more than 100 areas including agency management, financial management, budgeting and strategic planning, mutual aid and disaster coordination, credentialing and training, clinical standards, safety, and community education.
