This review paper describes the development of the pre-hospital system in Singapore from the pre-war days. Every country's prehospital community needs a deep understanding of how they developed over the years, factors that played a part, and the aspirations their community and government have set for this. This can guide future evolution of the services to ensure that care provided is relevant, applicable and in keeping with the community's needs. Countries with similar contextual circumstances, but at a different stage of development of their PECs, may learn from these.
这篇综述文章描述了新加坡从战前时期开始的院前系统发展历程。每个国家的院前医疗群体都需要深入了解其多年来的发展情况、发挥作用的因素以及该群体和政府为其设定的目标。这可以指导服务的未来发展,以确保所提供的护理是相关的、适用的且符合社区需求。处于类似背景情况,但院前急救护理(PEC)发展阶段不同的国家,可以从中学习。
