Meet the SMART Medical Clearance Team
The SSVMS Emergency Care Committee created and vetted the SMART Medical Clearance project. The Committee is made up of Emergency Department Medical Directors from all hospitals in the four (4) county Sacramento region and studies issues related to emergency care facilities, trauma, patient transport and triage, disaster preparedness and on-call issues within the region. A core group of the Emergency Care Committee came together to develop, test, and implement SMART Medical Clearance.
