AB Medical  directors  play  an  integral  role  in  the  care  of  patients  in  the  prehospital  setting.  Along  with  the  ability  to  have  a  positive  impact  on  the  care  of  the  patient  goes  the  responsibility  to  strive  for  the  best  possible  outcome.  Medical  directors  must  ensure  that  they  carry  out  their  roles  with  the  due  care  which  the  law  will  impose  on  them.  The  failure  to  carefully  carry  out  their  roles  may  not  only  result  in  harm  to  the  patient,  but  also  to  liability  of  the  physician  and  the  physician's  employer.
