๐๐ Mon EMS Citizens Academy โ Week 4 Recap ๐๐
Week 4 took our Citizens Academy participants behind the scenes and into the driverโs seat, literally.
This week focused on the operational side of EMS, giving participants a deeper understanding of what it takes to keep our system running every day:
๐ฆ Explored our Logistics Tactical Supply Center, learning about the equipment we use, and the real cost behind keeping crews mission-ready
๐ Got an inside look at the Regional Transport Allocation Dispatch Center, which coordinates our interfacility transports across the region
๐ช Practiced lifting and moving patients using stretchers and stairchairs
๐ And yesโฆ they got to drive an ambulance through the same obstacle course our new employees must complete
From logistics to operations to hands-on skills, Week 4 showed that EMS is more than what happens on scene, itโs an entire system working together.
๐ Huge job to this group for stepping up, trying new skills, and embracing the experience.
