The Michigan EMS Communication Discussion List is for any person, interested in any part of Emergency Medical Communication. This is the place to communicate with others with the same interest. The Michigan EMS HAZ MAT Discussion List is a forum for providers who wish to find out more, to meet those who wish to offer their knowledge to others. Hazardous Materials exist every where in our society, therefore EMS providers are constantly exposed to the potential of a HAZ MAT involved incident. There are two types of lists, discussion and broadcast.
Discussion lists allow all members to post to the list.
These lists are great for asking questions, expressing ideas, suggestions, etc. You can chose to receive the postings in a digest form which will contain all of the messages, from a specified time frame, into one e-mail. While the lists are monitored, the monitor will only step in if someone steps outside of the rules established for the list. An example of what goes on in an EMS discussion list might be sharing information on different protocols and the advantages and disadvantages. Currently the changing status of the EMS division are being discussed.
