EMORY EMS EMR COURSE APPLICATION 2018-2019
Dear EMR Course Applicant,
Emory Emergency Medical Services (EEMS) is a professional EMS agency that provides vital medical services, education, and outreach to Emory University and the surrounding community. EEMS was founded in 1992 as the first collegiate EMS agency in the state of Georgia and is an award-winning and nationally recognized collegiate EMS organization.
In the EMR Course, students will learn life-saving patient care skills through both classroom and practical experience. The course is approximately 6 months in length; it begins in October 2018 and will conclude in March 2019. Classes will be on Tuesdays (8am-10am) and Saturdays (8am-5pm) and will be held on Emory University's main campus. See website for more details: eems.emory.edu. In addition to classroom hours, students may have the option to complete clinical hours with top EMS agencies and hospitals in the metropolitan Atlanta area.
The purpose of our EMR course is to develop a network of first responders on the campuses of Emory University. These first responders will render aid and may provide life saving care, in many cases before the arrival of higher trained EMS personnel get to the scene. While this course does require considerable work and commitment, it will be one of your most rewarding activities at Emory.
Upon successful course completion, graduates will be expected to attempt both the computer based and psychomotor portions of the NREMT EMR exam and upon passing, to volunteer for at least one year as an Emory EMS First Responder.
For more information, reference eems.emory.edu.
Thank you for your time,
The Emory EMS Command Staff
