What does accountability actually look like in EMS? In this episode of the Inside EMS podcast, cohosts Chris Cebollero and Kelly Grayson get into the gritty details 鈥 beyond the management-speak 鈥 and outline the 7 pillars of accountability that can make or break an EMS organization. From character and unity, to urgency and evolution, they explore how each pillar builds a culture that supports excellence, trust and growth in the field.
The discussion gets into metrics that actually matter (and no, 鈥渨e鈥檙e doing fine鈥 颈蝉苍鈥檛 a metric), urgency that respects both speed and precision, and how to develop a reputation that earns trust from coworkers and ED staff alike.
Whether you鈥檙e in a leadership role or still riding the bench seat, this episode is a masterclass in personal and organizational accountability.
