Bill overview
This bill establishes a system for certifying and regulating emergency medical responders (EMRs) in Nevada. It aims to ensure consistent standards for these vital first responders by codifying existing regulations and applying similar legal protections to EMRs as are given to EMTs and paramedics. The bill defines the term ‘emergency medical responder,’ prohibits impersonation of a certified responder, and expands legal protections related to workplace safety, benefits, and treatment decisions. It also includes provisions for data collection and reporting, particularly concerning veterans.
