      Dear EMS Colleagues,<br>
      <br>
      Attached please find updated documents regarding the Massachusetts
      Department of Public Health's Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE)
      sites. Remember that under the Statewide Point of Entry Plan for
      Appropriate Health Care Destination Based on Patient's Specific
      Condition and Need,
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.mass.gov/doc/statewide-point-of-entry-plan-for-appropriate-health-care-facility-destination-based-on-0/download">https://www.mass.gov/doc/statewide-point-of-entry-plan-for-appropriate-health-care-facility-destination-based-on-0/download</a>,
      EMS may transport to a more distant hospital in a number of
      circumstances in which it would be more appropriate for addressing
      the patient's needs, including because the hospital is a SANE
      site.<br>
      <br>
      The first attachment provides an overview of SANE services. The
      second attachment, called Attachment A, lists the hospitals that
      are designated as SANE sites to which EMS can transport in
      accordance with this point of entry plan. The third attachment is
      a list of FAQs for patients who need SANE services.<br>
      <br>
      Thank you, and please enjoy a safe 4th of July weekend!<br>
