ISO 9001:2015: The Backbone of NAAMTA's Commitment
to Excellence in Accreditation Services

In an ever-evolving medical transport landscape, the importance of delivering quality services consistently and reliably cannot be overstated. For NAAMTA Global, a leader in medical transport accreditation, this commitment to quality is not just a promise but a structured and systematic approach, underscored by our adherence to ISO 9001:2015 standards. This article explores why ISO 9001:2015 is integral to NAAMTA's pledge of excellence in our accreditation services.

1. Standardized Quality Management: ISO 9001:2015 is globally recognized as the gold standard for quality management systems. It provides a framework that ensures services meet clients' needs through an effective quality management system. For NAAMTA, adopting ISO 9001:2015 means our processes are designed to consistently achieve and enhance customer satisfaction.

2. Continual Improvement: A core component of ISO 9001:2015 is the principle of continuous improvement. NAAMTA’s commitment to this principle ensures that our accreditation services are not static. We continuously seek ways to improve efficiency and effectiveness, which in turn increases the value of the accreditation we offer to medical transport providers.

3. Evidence-based Decision Making: ISO 9001:2015 emphasizes the use of evidence-based decision making. By integrating this approach, NAAMTA ensures that decisions related to accreditation processes are made based on clear, accurate, and relevant data. This not only enhances transparency but also boosts the credibility of the accreditation process.

“Prior to the pandemic, we developed and introduced the NEAT application platform. The platform provides customers with a dynamic, transparent and complete accreditation audit report reflecting ‘real-time’ feedback and progress from beginning to the final report,” said Amy Arndt, NAAMTA Global Operations Director, and Nancy Purcell, NAAMTA’s Director of Clinical Operations, in a joint statement. “The NEAT incorporates a ‘Self-Assessment’ feature that enables customers to look at their policies and make an assessment of full, partial or non-compliance to each standard.”

White House issues proclamation on EMS Week 2021

WASHINGTON — The White House and President Joe Biden have issued an official proclamation recognizing May 16-May 22, 2021, as EMS Week and honoring the service and dedication of the nation's EMS providers.

The proclamation issued Friday highlights the resiliency of EMS providers throughout the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

"Through service, compassion, and dedication, EMS providers represent the very best of the American spirit," Biden stated in the proclamation. "In the face of unprecedented challenges, their expertise, endurance, and hard work have been a literal lifeline for families in every community. Whether responding to enormous suffering caused by COVID-19, the devastation of extreme climate events, or daily medical emergencies, EMS providers — many of whom are volunteers — prepare, sacrifice, and put others ahead of themselves."

The statement lauds EMS providers' role in supporting COVID-19 testing and vaccination and notes that $100 million from the American Rescue Plan act has been dedicated to supporting the mental health of healthcare workers and first responders, including those in EMS.

The proclamation encourages communities to observe EMS Week through EMS-focused programs and activities.

The theme of EMS Week 2021 is "This Is EMS: Caring for Our Communities."

After more than a year of weathering a pandemic, it’s fitting that the 2021 EMS Week theme emphasizes EMS’ dedication to local communities
