1 Rice Emergency Medical Services New Member Orientation Packet All of Rice EMS official policies, procedures and protocols are contained in your SOP/Protocol binder. Attending this orientation is not a substitute for reading and learning the content of that binder. Should you find any discrepancy between this informational packet and what that binder says, always go with the binder.
2 History of REMS Written by Noah Reiter, Annotated by Aaron Heckelman The concept of a university based Emergency Medical Services began shortly after Mark Escott (Jones 96) matriculated in 1991 at Rice University. This was a difficult concept to sell to the university which lies across the street from the largest medical center in the world. After examining the response times of the municipal EMS service, which averaged around 9-10 minutes, the university was convinced that in a serious emergency that this delay could be life threatening. The program was funded in 1995, and REMS was established. The first Rice University Emergency Medical Technician training course was held in the spring of 1996 in order to create a staff of students to respond to emergencies. After years of roadblocks, discussions with local EMS providers, meetings with administrators, data crunching, budgeting, and development, REMS began emergency response operations on October 4, Just eight days later, on October 12, 1996, REMS had its first CPR save. The incident occurred at a wedding reception at the Faculty Club, during which an elderly female collapsed on the dance floor in sudden cardiac arrest. A REMS EMT (a graduate of Rice s first EMT class in the spring of 1996) was working as a waitress in the Faculty Club, witnessed the arrest, and began CPR within 30 seconds of the arrest. REMS duty crew and supervisors arrived approximately 1 ½-2 minutes later to continue efforts, with the Houston Fire Department and EMS Medical Director arriving shortly thereafter. The patient was defibrillated, regained spontaneous respirations while on scene and was extubated en route to the ER. She was conscious and talking upon arrival. REMS staff involved in the CPR save, and the REMS program in general, received recognition from the Houston City Council and commendations from the President of the University. Two months later to the day, REMS held a save reception to honor those who participated in the event. Ironically, that very evening REMS had its second cardiac arrest, and second CPR save, this time in front of the Board of Governors, University contributors, and the University President at a gala to honor the outgoing Chairman of the Board of Governors. Again REMS was on scene and initiating CPR within 2 minute. This time the patient never had to be intubated and was awake and talking while still on scene--again the patient made a complete recovery. The third REMS save came on April 5, 1999 at approximately 4:45 in the evening. A professor of the School of Music was watching a student recital and collapsed in sudden cardiac arrest. Bystanders initiated CPR immediately and called REMS. REMS arrived on scene within 45 seconds of the dispatch and the patient was defibrillated approximately 1 minute later. Again, the patient never had to be intubated and was awake and talking in the ER. This event marked the first successful defibrillation of an individual in the city of Houston, and possibly even the State of Texas, using an AED (outside of the municipal EMS service). At a reception to honor REMS and bystanders, representatives from the American Heart Association spoke and praised the efforts of REMS as a leader in the fight for wider access defibrillation programs. In the years since, REMS has time and again demonstrated its excellence in its wide variety of EMS operations. In addition to daily responses, REMS now provides coverage for many university special events. This includes varsity athletic events, Matriculation, Commencement, Beer Bike, Baker Institute functions and several other university events. REMS annual call volume has increased steadily over the years. In 2004 we received 560 calls, and we are already on pace to surpass that number in Despite this increase in call volume, REMS average response time remains one of the best in the state of Texas, and its quality of patient care, as measured by continuous surveying of patients, remains excellent. In early 2005 long-time EMS administrator Cathy Sunday was hired to serve as REMS full time Director. Our organization on the whole, however, remains primarily a volunteer, student-run, student-operated service, as it always has been. 1
