In the Philippines where very, few cities have a public emergency service system in place, prehospital care and emergency services are lacking. These translate into more significant morbidity, poorer treatment outcomes and even death in involved critical cases. Emergency medical service personnel in the country (emergency medical technicians, prehospital care responders and paramedics) should be recognized in legislation and in existing healthcare systems as a profession as they received appropriate education and training for emergency responses. The inefficiency and pluralistic disorganization of our prehospital care systems is a substantial contributor to the country’s top sources of acute morbidity and mortality. This will continue to be so unless policy makers and stakeholders realize that the key to advancing our systems lies in a multisectoral approach with systemic changes in national financing, infrastructure and legislation.
