Emergency Medical Services Regulatory Board recognizes Mayo Clinic ambulance services for outstanding prehospital clinical care

 The Emergency Medical Services Regulatory Board (EMSRB) has recognized several Mayo Clinic ambulance services for providing outstanding prehospital clinical care in 2022.

The measures included evaluating the quality of patient care in cases of strokes, chest pain, trauma and pediatrics. The 95 services in Minnesota recognized had to achieve a performance rating of 80% or higher in five or more individual performance measures.

The Mayo Clinic Ambulance sites recognized are:

• Mayo Clinic Ambulance in Austin
• Mayo Clinic Ambulance in Albert Lea
• Mayo Clinic Ambulance in Duluth
• Mayo Clinic Ambulance in Fairmont

In early 2022, in collaboration with EMS physicians from across the state, the EMSRB established multiple clinical advisory performance measures that could be used to benchmark and highlight “the wonderful prehospital care that Minnesotans receive every day from our dedicated EMTs and paramedics,” according to Dylan Ferguson, executive director of the EMSRB.
