🚑 On September 8, Gloucester County EMS partnered with SSH&E to conduct a simulated emergency response at ExxonMobil Paulsboro.
The exercise focused on a workplace emergency scenario and tested coordination, communication, and treatment protocols. Our EMTs worked side-by-side with site personnel to practice scene management and patient care in a safe, controlled setting.
A big thank you to Michelle and Alexa for representing GCEMS with professionalism, and to our partners at ExxonMobil Paulsboro for hosting this valuable drill. Training like this keeps our teams ready for real-world emergencies.

📚⚖️ Medical Legal & Ethics Day at the Academy

Recently, we had the privilege of welcoming our friend and local legal expert, Joe Remy, to the EMS Academy. Joe drew from his career as a lawyer and prosecutor—along with his years of EMS experience—to share valuable insight into the legal and ethical challenges faced in the field.

Students not only reviewed core legal concepts, but also worked through real case studies and explored the ethical considerations that shape EMS decision-making. Having Joe’s perspective added depth and real-world context that made the day especially impactful.

🚑👩‍⚕️ Pediatric Trauma Education at GCEMS 👨‍⚕️🚑

This week, Gloucester County EMS was proud to host Cooper University Health Care Medical Direction for a CEU session focused on pediatric trauma.

As always, classes were free, and open to all.

To make sure every provider had access, we offered sessions for both day and night shift crews—because learning never stops when you serve a 24/7 community.

Thank you to Cooper’s team for bringing their expertise, and to our EMTs and paramedics for continuing to invest in their professional growth. Together, we’re making sure Gloucester County’s youngest patients get the care they deserve. 💙

📍Both classes were held live, in person, at the GCEMS Training Academy.

Who Responds When You Call 911?

When you dial 911 in Gloucester County, the first faces you’ll see are Gloucester County EMS EMTs—the front-line, lifesaving providers who staff our ambulances and Quick Response Vehicles (QRVs).

What EMTs do (Basic Life Support):
🚑Rapid patient assessment
🚑CPR & defibrillation (AED)
🚑Oxygen therapy & airway management
🚑Bleeding control, splinting, and immobilization
🚑Administration of critical medications such as epinephrine, naloxone, aspirin, and albuterol

What Paramedics do (Advanced Life Support):
🏥Advanced airways
🏥Cardiac monitoring
🏥IV/IO access and advanced medications

💡 Many of our EMTs also hold advanced licenses as paramedics or nurses—but when they wear the GCEMS patch, they deliver Basic Life Support care. Paramedic units are dispatched separately, only when advanced interventions are needed.
Every call starts with an EMT. Every life saved begins with their skill, speed, and compassion. 💙

🚨Fast, Focused, & First In 🚨
Quick Response Vehicles (QRVs) are strategically stationed in remote or low-call-volume areas of Gloucester County—places where ambulances would take longer to reach. Staffed by experienced EMTs and paramedics, these non-transport units are dispatched at the same time as ambulances, ensuring immediate care starts as quickly as possible.
These highly experienced providers respond in non-transport SUVs, equipped with everything needed to assess, stabilize, and prepare for incoming transport units. Their job? Make every second count.
QRV operators are calm under pressure, precise in their assessments, and often the first face our patients see. Whether it's a cardiac arrest, serious trauma, or multi-agency scene, these responders bring leadership, clinical skill, and unmatched efficiency.
Your presence sets the tone—and we see the difference you make every day. Thank you.

📚🩺 A&P Note Taking Champions 🩺📚
In our Anatomy & Physiology unit, students were challenged to create the most clear, organized, and learning-friendly class notes—something their classmates could actually use to study and succeed.
After careful review (and some tough judging!), we have our champions: Sierra, Sophie, Dominic, and Caden!
They each took home a prize pack along with their well-earned bragging rights. 🏆
Well done, team—you’ve set the bar high for future classes!

🚨 Meet Class 012! 🚨
They’ve just crossed the Mid-Quarter mark, and we couldn’t be prouder of how far they’ve come.

So far, they’ve earned their CPR certifications, tackled medical terminology, mastered the basics of anatomy & physiology, and dove headfirst into the complex world of pathophysiology. They’ve learned to take vitals, navigate transport operations, understand life span development, and safely lift and move patients as a team.

Along the way, they’ve also discovered that great EMTs aren’t just made from books and drills—but from teamwork, grit, and the relentless pursuit of getting it right under pressure.

The journey is just getting started. Let’s hear it for Class 012! 💪🚑

We’re proud of our team—and grateful for your trust.
