Greetings from the Oregon EMS
Conference Committee
2010 is shaping up to be quite the year for new events both locally and
nationally. We’ve seen a number of high profile fire service management
personnel within our state retire or change positions this year. We’ve seen
Medicare (or should I say CMS) reimbursements go down and up in a few
short months and we’ve seen historic disasters at home and around the
world.
And now your Oregon EMS Conference is having a number of “firsts” in
2010.
For the first time Salem, the State Capital, will be the host of The Oregon
EMS Conference. The Salem Conference Center is shaping up to be a
great facility to host what is the largest EMS Conference in Oregon. For that
matter we are the only centralized EMS conference on the West Coast.
Another first is our keynote speaker, Randolph Mantooth, (Johnny Gage
from the show Emergency), who will be making his debut for the first time.
Randolph’s character Johnny Gage and his partner Roy DeSoto (played
by Kevin Tighe) were the motivation for thousands of folks to become
paramedics and enter the world of EMS. While these actors played the role,
it was really Jame’s Page the Grandfather of EMS that was the nuclei for
the movement of pre-hospital care as we know it today. Jim’s knowledge
led this show to portray pre-hospital providers as never shown before.
Randolph Mantooth’s speaking engagement at the conference is being
sponsored by a substantial contribution from Life Flight Network. Please
join the committee in thanking Life Flight Network for making this possible.
And finally we are having our first Cadaver Lab. The conference committee
has been trying for years to host one of these educational opportunities
and all the elements have finally come together in Salem to allow us to
bring you this excellent training opportunity. Class size will be limited but
those involved will see firsthand how the treatments you practice enter
the human body. Students will be able to perform skills they’ve only been
able to do previously on manikins. There are many agencies that are owed
a huge thank you for their work for bringing this to you. Thanks to the
Oregon Health & Science University Hospital and Salem Hospital for their
partnership in bringing you this opportunity.
Salem and the surrounding area have lots to offer both you and your guest
for all sorts of entertainment. Personnel will be available at the registration
table to help you pick one of the many events to experience while you’re in
town.
Thank you for everything you do on a daily basis and for your support
in making our conference such a success. I hope to see you during the
conference and remember as always,
Play safe, train hard, and keep an eye on your partner,

the genesis of the fire-based paramedic
program. The lecture focuses on the
people responsible for the creation of the
modern paramedic/EMT concept and
its introduction to the American public. It
also delves into the unique role played
by television’s first reality-based series in
accelerating the implementation of EMS
systems nationwide during the 1970s. The
program will give EMS providers a clear
view of where they came from, and the
steps it took to get to where EMS is today.

Age and Trauma, How Age
Affects Injury
Presenter: Micheal Pante
0920 - 1030 (repeats at 1055)
Injury affects the human body differently
as we age. As EMS providers we care for
trauma patients of every age. But what
makes children and the elderly respond
differently to injury? The presentation will
discuss the differences seen in the causes
of trauma, the response to injury by the
body and treatment strategies for both
ends of the age spectrum.

Service with a Smile--Dealing
with the Hostile Patient
Presenter: Steve Berry
1435 - 1545
Many psychiatric calls are purely
behavioral in nature. They are often the
result of overwhelming and cumulative
stressful events. Most require little more
than reassurance and comfort by the
health care provider. We may, however,
lose sight of providing such compassion
secondary to the accumulated stress we
face ourselves in EMS. By learning how to
honor yourself, you can most often disarm
behavioral confrontations without the use
of restraints and/or medication.
Steve Berry, BA, NREMT-P; a former
teacher and interpreter for the hearing
impaired, Steve has published 10
EMS related cartoon books since his
escapades as a paramedic/EMS instructor
began 22 years ago. Steve writes a
monthly humor column for Jems magazine
along with cartoon illustrations for both

Tips for First Responders
Evacuating People with
Disabilities in a Disaster
Presenter: Dr. Jerry Ryan
1435 - 1545
The presentation/training is targeted at
first responders emphasizing the idea that
no matter what type of emergent situation,
natural or man made, first responders

with disabilities. The training provides
disability specific tips and best practices
for first responders when encountering
individuals with disabilities. Disabilities
covered include: Seniors, People with
Service Animals, People with Mobility
Impairments, People with Autism, People
who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing, People
who are Blind or Visually Impaired, People
with Cognitive Disabilities, People with
Multiple Chemical Sensitivities, People
who are Mentally Ill. The training ends
w w w
with situational scenarios where we would
pair first responders and provide scenario
cards.

The Difficult Airway:
Identification and
Management in EMS
Presenter: Dr. Robert Vissers
General Session
If Life is Worth Saving, It Must be
Worth Living
1610 - 1720
Humor is a gift we are born with and,
used positively, is a source of major
stress reduction, but it must nurtured and
often times relearned for those working in
emergency health care. Our profession
attracts some of the most dedicated and
compassionate people. So much so
that they often neglect their own needs.
Join Steve as he combines his EMS and
cartooning backgrounds to speak the
message of health and humor.

Conference Day 2
The Hole Story: The Implications
of Body Piercing
0920 - 1030
General Session
Building a Foundation: BLS in
an ALS World
Presenter: Mark Rock
0800 - 0910
The past ten years have seen an explosion
in advanced level care, but has this come
at the expense of the BLS that provides
the basis for sound EMS? EMS Author,
Educator, and JEMS EMT and Paramedic
Advisory Committee (EPAC) member
Mark Rock explores this topic against a
background of EMS’ transition from BLS
intensive to ALS intensive, and explains
why, in an ALS world, BLS continues to be
indispensible.
Mark Rock is an alumnus of the University
of Oregon and did post-graduate work
at Portland’s Neurological Sciences
Institute before moving to Los Angeles in
the 1980’s. Rock first practiced EMS as
a Lifeguard on the beaches of southern
California, and then went on to serve as a
Paramedic in both private and fire-based

Why do people do it and what are the
health risks? Mr. Berry will review some of
the ways they may interfere with standard
treatment for those working in emergency
health care.

Common Pediatric EMS Calls:
Separating the Good from the
Bad
Presenter: Dr. Ritu Sahni
1055 -1205
This lecture will use a case based fromat
to stimulate discussion about these
common calls and how to differentiate the
serious from the not so serious.
Those working in the field of emergency
medicine often times have to respond
to scenes involving horrific trauma and
death, and yet they must not only keep
working the remainder of their shift, but
they must do it again the next day and
the next. How do they do this? For many,
gallows humor offers a momentary respite
from their sense of loss and pain. Most
people outside our profession view this as
going beyond the bounds of good taste.
But we know in spite of such tragedies,
amusing incidents happen anyway, and
that sometimes humor is the only weapon
we have. Sometimes it’s just an inner
chuckle that tells us “we’ll get through
this.” We all need to sharpen our senses
on calls. Join Steve as he encourages us
to enhance our sense of healthy humor
while touching your heart with hope and
understanding.

Importance of Systems of Care
Saturday, October 9
Conference Day 2
Presenter: Dr. Joaquin Cigarroa
1435 - 1545 (repeats at 1610)
Continued
One Size Doesn’t Fit All
Presenter: Dr. Ed Wilgus and Victor Hoffer,
EMT-P
1435 - 1545
Take a look around! The faces of
Oregonians have been rapidly changing!
We look very differently from ten years
ago, five years ago, one year ago. As
first responders, do we truly see these
changes and how do we effectively
manage the dynamics of cultural, linguistic
and diversity differences? In a thoughtful,
passionate and engaging manner, this
session will not only create a greater
awareness of our changing communities
but will ask the questions, “how are first
responders adapting to diversity and the
cultural context of individuals and the
communities served.” Real-life scenarios
will paint a picture that echoes the need
for responding in culturally effective ways.
Ed Wilgus, PhD, is the Diversity Manager
for Salem Health/Hospital. Prior to coming
to SH, Ed conducted research, writing,
keynoting and workshops addressing
issues related to systemic human
resources capital management and
diversity.
Dr Cigarroa will discuss the value of a
systematic approach to patient care and
how it can benefit the outcome for the
patient in a positive way. Knowing what is
involved in the total care of our patients
will help us make better decisions. This
class is a must for all of us who work in the
medical system.
Dr. Joaquin Cigarroa joined the Division
of Cardiovascular Medicine in January
2006 as Associate Cheif of Clinical Affairs
and Director of Cardiac Catheterization
Laboratories. Dr. Cigarroa’s expertise lies
in the interventional cardiology, which
he practices in OHSU’s Cardiovascular
Medicine Clinic. Research interests
include acute coronary syndromes,
cocain and cardiovascular complications,

graduated from Yale University in 1985,
attended Cornell University Medical
School and finished his Internship and
Residency at Massachusetts General
Hospital in Boston.
