Jake, who works in AMR (American Medical Response) in Portland, shares his perspective on the integration of emergency medicine and emergency management. He emphasizes the importance of transportation in emergencies and the need for better cohesion between EMS and emergency management.

Jake discusses his experience working in AMR for over 13 years and obtaining a degree in emergency management. He highlights the integration of EMS and emergency management through tabletop and full-scale exercises. He mentions his role as the go-to person for AMR in the Portland region, serving a population of close to 2 million people.

Jake also addresses the challenges faced during wildfires and emphasizes the value of building relationships through shared meals and treats to foster collaboration between EMS and emergency management.

The conversation shifts to discussing quality control and identifying gaps in emergency management. Jake suggests that EMS and emergency management need to engage in casual environments and actively seek each other out to better integrate and plan together. He shares examples of building relationships through community events and barbecues, stressing the importance of spending time together and exchanging business cards before major events. The discussion concludes with the mention of dynamic populations and the value of training experiences that go beyond traditional emergency management courses, as Jake highlights the importance of
training and its impact on understanding and data-driven decision-making.
