Read MoreEmergency medical technicians (EMTs) and paramedics respond to emergency situations, perform various medical services and assist with transportation of patients to medical facilities. Our students are trained in many critical skills such as CPR, giving patients oxygen and administering glucose to diabetics. EMTs can perform many medical services which do not require breaking skin such as starting an intravenous line or administering injections. Certified paramedics can administer medications, provide advanced airway management, resuscitate patients and support patients with significant problems such as heart attacks or trauma. Our program is made available through coordination with Northwestern Medicine Kishwaukee Hospital EMS System.
Our emergency medical services program is nationally accredited by the Committee on Accreditation of Allied Health Educational Programs (CAAHEP), with peer review conducted by the Committee on Accreditation of Educational Programs for the Emergency Medical Services Professions (CoAEMSP).
