name
descriptionThe level of care (such as BLS or ALS) the EMS unit/crew is able to provide based on the units' treatment capabilities for this EMS response. For example, if a unit/crew is staffed with an EMT-Intermediate or EMT-Paramedic but the unit is either licensed or stocked at a BLS level, the appropriate level of care is "BLS-Basic". This is because the care provided to patients is limited to BLS skills.
