For this project to serve as both a tool for EMS providers and an academic application of ethical theory, I have structured it in such a way that it should be accessible and beneficial to members of both disciplines. For this reason, I strive to paint a picture of the realities of prehospital emergency medicine as well as provide a thorough explanation of philosophical concepts.Medical ethicsEmergency medical technician and patientEmergency medical personnel -- Moral and ethical aspectsThesis
