history
On November 21, 2006, 27 rescue service experts founded the "German Rescue Service Association" in Hamburg. The objective was to represent the interests of the rescue personnel in Germany and to improve the preclinical care of all patients entrusted to the rescue service . This was preceded by numerous and long discussions in the ranks of the rescue specialists about the need for a new professional association in addition to the already existing professional association for the rescue service (BVRD).
At the endeavor of the DBRD, the constituent meeting of the German management committee of the international trauma care system PHTLS (Pre Hospital Trauma Life Support) took place in July 2007 , which has since been offering courses in Germany as PHTLS Germany affiliated to the DBRD. The international course concept AMLS (Advanced Medical Life Support) was also introduced in Germany by the DBRD in October 2010 .
In November 2011, the specialist journal Emergency + Rescue Medicine was presented as an association organ.
