Regulations and Local Planning
The Office of Emergency Medical Services is responsible for the EMS agencies and the enforcement of the Regulations that guide them.
State agencies propose regulations in order to make changes to the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies-Connecticut’s version of a state administrative code. To learn more about this process see the Connecticut eRegulation webpage.
