House calls. Making politics work for you.
The term "lobbyist" often brings up images of smoke-filled back rooms and dirty dealings, but the average person lobbies for some type of cause every day, whether drumming up support for a new project at work, for being promoted or just for getting a spouse to agree to paint the house a new color. In this era of health care reform, it's time to promote EMS as a viable health care entity by using these lobbying skills to make the politicians listen. You can bet that other health care groups are lobbying right now, and if you don't do it, EMS will be left out in the cold.
