Show me a State that subscribes to NREMT for licensure & I will show you a State to lazy to run their 0wn program

I assume different states address this issue with a state law or code. In Alabama, when a MD signs the letter of necessity, the MD is legally stating the pt is unable to be transported by a lesser means; the pt is non ambulatory. (& yes I know docs that fib their way thru it every day) What some...

If a MD has signed a letter of necessity to transport a Pt back home from a hosp ER, which is a legal testament that the Pt is non ambulatory, then NO, you can not leave the Pt alone...u can be A&O & not be able to get out of a burning house!!
