To increase your knowledge of the field, imagine that you are the head of your county EMS agency. You want everyone in your area to use the START method of triage. You have been given the opportunity to speak at your next district EMS meeting, which the heads of area EMS agencies will attend. This is your big chance! Prepare a paper outlining what START is, what it does, and why your area EMS agencies should all adopt the same system for use in the event of major disasters or the use of WMD by terrorists. Remember, the better your paper, the better your presentation. (You may include charts, graphs, etc. in your paper.)
