DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request
Periodically, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services
Administration (SAMHSA) will publish a summary of information
collection requests under the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
review, in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
chapter 35). To request a copy of these documents, call the SAMHSA
Reports Clearance Officer on (240) 276-0361.
Proposed Project: Rural Emergency Medical Services Training (EMS
Training) Monitoring
SAMHSA will monitor program performance of its Rural Emergency
Medical Services Training (EMS Training) grant program. The EMS
Training grantees will recruit and train EMS personnel in rural areas
with a particular focus on addressing mental and substance use
disorders. To accomplish this, the EMS Training grantees conduct
courses that qualify graduates to serve in an EMS agency, train EMS
personnel as appropriate to maintain licenses and certifications and
ensure EMS personnel are trained on mental and substance use disorders
and
[[Page 48192]]
care for people with such disorders in emergency situations.
The EMS Training grantees hold a variety of trainings. A training
event is defined as a Rural EMS Training sponsored or co-sponsored
event that focuses on teaching of a skill, knowledge, or experience for
personal or professional development. Higher education classes must be
included in this definition. Each course is considered as one training
event. SAMHSA intends to use one (1) instrument for program monitoring
of Rural EMS Training grantees activities as well as ongoing quality
improvement, which is described below.
1. Rural EMS Training Program Monitoring Report: This form collects
aggregated event information. This instrument asks eight (8) questions
of EMS Training grant staff relating to the number of participants they
recruited and have trained. It allows the grantees and SAMHSA to track
the number of EMS personnel recruited, trained and number of
certifications accomplished (See Attachment 1).
SAMHSA recognizes the need for emergency services in rural areas
and the critical role EMS personnel serve across the country. The
information collected is crucial to support SAMHSA in complying with
Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) reporting requirements
and will inform future development of knowledge dissemination
activities.
