💁 Who wants to serve the community of Kingman and/or get a free jumpstart in a new career?

In EMS, learning never stops. Every call, every training, and every continuing education class helps providers sharpen their skills and deliver the best possible care to their communities.

Continued education is critical in EMS because medicine is constantly evolving. New treatments, new equipment, and new research mean providers must stay prepared for whatever emergency comes next. Training keeps our crews confident, knowledgeable, and ready to respond when seconds matter most. Tomorrow providers will have training where we will walk through various scenarios and challenges.

Just as important is investing in the next generation of EMS professionals. Today’s students and new providers are tomorrow’s leaders, educators, and lifesavers. By mentoring, teaching, and supporting future EMS personnel, we help strengthen the future of emergency medical services for our entire community. Kingman EMS will be holding an information session for a fall EMT course on June 4th. We will talk about the upcoming class and answer any questions for those interested in learning more about EMS and how to get started.

To all EMS educators, preceptors, training officers, and providers who take the time to teach others — thank you for helping shape the future of EMS. 🚑💙
