AI Summary
This bill amends Chapter 111C of the General Laws to modify the staffing requirements for ambulances transporting patients at the paramedic and non-paramedic levels of care. It allows rural volunteer ambulance services to staff their basic life support ambulances with one emergency medical technician and one "first responder" (a qualified police officer, firefighter, or emergency reserve member) instead of requiring two emergency medical technicians. This is intended to address staffing challenges for rural volunteer ambulance services.
