Joint Royal Colleges Ambulance Liaison Committee
JRCALC is the Joint Royal Colleges Ambulance Liaison Committee. Their role is to provide robust clinical speciality advice to ambulance services within the UK and it publishes regularly updated clinical guidelines. The first meeting of JRCALC was in 1989 and was hosted by the Royal College of Physicians, London. The guidelines are supposed to be produced from evidence-based medicine. However, organisations such as the College of Paramedics have criticised the committee for poor reference to available evidence in the past. JRCALC have produced a number of systematic reviews on various topics. Available evidence  is researched and discussed by a team of academics and clinicians including representatives from all UK ambulance services, and a number of medical disciplines. The Guidelines are produced by the JRCALC Guideline Development Group (JRCALC-GDG) hosted by the University of Warwick. Executive committee. Members.
