  • Title: A unified emergency care system from first aid to definitive care.
    Author: Morgan-Jones D, Hodgetts TJ.
    Journal: J R Army Med Corps; 1999 Oct; 145(3):132-5. PubMed ID: 10579167.
    Abstract:
    The Unified Emergency Care System (UECS) provides an integrated system of medical support from point of injury to the time a casualty is handed over to specialist care within hospital. It enables personnel at all skill levels to deliver life-saving support to casualties with a broad range of acute injuries and illness. The UECS facilitates standardised training with each level building upon the previous, yet it retains an inherent flexibility to adapt to specific operational and service requirements.
