    Episode 84: Disparity Part 2
    Does your service offer care equitably to all patients? Have you ever thought about it? Do you think there are any disparities in EMS care and, if so, to what extent does it impact the patients in your system? Drs. Sahni and Jarvis had a conversation about just this topic as part of ESO’s virtual WAVE conference. We did a live episode with Professor Jamie Kennel on his work, so we will call this part II!
