EMS Garage host Chris Montera is joined by two paramedics from disparate parts of the world.

David Davis is a paramedic from West Sussex in the U.K. He works as a clinical specialist paramedic for telephone triage in his region.

Also joining the podcast is David Glendenning who is a Clinical Applications Specialist with Southeastern Emergency Equipment, where he focuses on education and training on the tools EMS providers use every day, and Education and Outreach Support for New Hanover Regional EMS.

The discussion focuses on how best to educate the public on 911 use and abuse, and fiscal responsibility relating to the provision of healthcare.
