Our Paramedic Program is designed to prepare students for the highest level of pre-hospital care. Building on the foundation of the EMT and AEMT scope of practice, this course provides in-depth training in advanced airway management, cardiology, pharmacology, trauma, and medical emergencies. Students will gain hands-on experience through classroom instruction, high-fidelity simulations, cadaver lab, clinical rotations, and field internships alongside experienced paramedics. Graduates of this program are prepared to take the National Registry Paramedic (NRP) exam and enter the field with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to provide advanced life support in any emergency setting.
