In 1967 Dr. Peter Safar set out to do something that had never been done before in the United States: taking critical care and emergency medicine outside the walls of the hospital. But how would he accomplish this? The answer is simple, with the creation of paramedics!
On this episode, we speak with best selling author Kevin Hazzard, as we discuss his newest book, American Sirens!
American Sirens is the incredible story of Freedom House Ambulance in the City of Pittsburgh, and the black men that became American's first paramedics, under the expert tutelage of Dr. Peter Safar, Dr. Nancy Caroline, and many others.
This episode was recorded during a live virtual meeting with Kevin Hazzard on November 3, 2022 during the Clinical Concepts hosted Emergency Medicine Journal Club. You won't want to miss it!
