Plain-language change summary

The recent amendment to Bill H 4484 updates the date range for the "Emergency Medical Services Week" to specifically state May 18 through 24, 2025, instead of the previously mentioned May 18-24. Additionally, it emphasizes the training and dedication of both career and volunteer emergency medical services providers.
