North Carolina College of Emergency Physicians' Guidance Document on Emergency Medical Services.

The North Carolina College of Emergency Physicians (NCCEP) Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Committee uses an evidence-based approach in writing its protocols and procedures. The most recent revision of the NCCEP document, which was started in late 2010, lasted for more than 1 year and utilized committee members from across the state. Four meetings were held at locations across North Carolina. In addition, 2 surveys were sent to get input from EMS providers. Since 2010, the document has been updated on an ongoing basis, aligning it with the latest evidence-based medicine.
