This gets even bigger. Thanks to our existing partnership, now #Fire, #EMS and #CriticalCare agencies -- in *ANY* (ANY!!!) jurisdiction where MyDirectives offers a #POLST or #MOLST registry (including #Maryland, #WashingtonDC, and soon #Massachusetts) -- can access end-of-life medical orders in the field, at the patient's side, in real-time. A compelling showcase of #Interoperability and #CollaborationForGood. ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? The achievement brings to mind what the iconoclastic Christopher Colwell said at #EMSAAC last year: We must start TRUSTING (!!!) clinicians in the field to "do the right thing for the patient." Dr. Cowell and Abby Dotson, Ph.D.: Your connected vision IS being realized, step by step, state by state. Exciting FYI for California, which is early in our POLST jouney: Jennifer Moore Ballentine, Keeta Scholl, Leslie Witten-Rood, CalHHS Center for Data Insights and Innovation Connecting for Better Health, Timi Leslie, John Ohanian, Tom McGinnis, Elizabeth Basnett, Congressman Jim Wood re: #AB133 CONGRATULATIONS Scott Brown, Maria D.
