Fire and EMS policy is not static. Some changes happen quickly, such as when new legislation is passed. Others result from longer-term trends, as best practices, terminology and technologies evolve and spread from agency to agency.
At Lexipol, our legal and policy development experts continuously monitor changes to both federal and state statutes and regulations, as well as changes in case law and NFPA standards. And by working with thousands of agencies across the country, we have a unique perspective in which to observe and anticipate how agency policies need to adapt to keep up with the changes.
