“The boundaries of Emergency Medicine are expanding and cannot be confined and practised within the hospital boundaries.   It’s about giving the right care to the right patient at the right site in a timely manner.   It’s essential to reach out to our community healthcare providers to deliver emergency care in a collaborative manner, even more so now.   We also need to reach out across the international boundaries to share our knowledge and skills in Pre-hospital, Disaster and First Response care which can help developing nations become ‘emergency prepared’ in a crisis.”
