Emergency Medical Technology (EMT) Program

 

This program includes techniques of emergency care, stabilization, and immobilization of victim's illness and injuries. Recognition and documentation of signs and symptoms of illness and injury, intervention, and evaluation of the intervention are integrated into the program. Techniques for assessment, administration of oxygen, use of specific immobilization devices and preparation for transportation are other areas of the program.

The EMT program is the first step toward a fire fighter career. The techniques taught in the program are in accordance with national and state curriculum. Students will have the opportunity to participate in clinical rotations through a local emergency department.
