BLS : basic life support patient care standards
The BLS patient care standards state the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care expectations with respect to how paramedics will interact with their patients. The standard sets out a logical ordering of the inter-related activities and practices of paramedics, activities which start with the patient's entry point to, and end with, their exit point from the ambulance system. The standard is divided into eight sections: general standard of care, medical patient categories, trauma patient categories, environment-related disorders, obstetrical conditions, pediatrics, geriatrics, and psychiatric disorders.--Includes text from document
