Kudos to the EMS Program!
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

More outstanding news in EMS! In addition to a recent grant award from the Florida Department of Health, they are celebrating student success. EMT graduates from Dec. 12, 2015 through June 11, 2016 passed their licensing exam at a rate of 94%<\/strong>, exceeding the state average of a 74% pass rate, and an amazing jump from the previous SPC pass rate.<\/p>\n

The EMS faculty and staff have spent huge amounts of time and effort to reach this amazing level of success in a very short time frame. With curriculum changes, outstanding out-of-class support, and the incorporation of a test prep class, EMS has made great strides to improve first attempt pass rates.<\/p>\n

SPC provides education in the two levels of Emergency Medical Services certified by the State of Florida: Emergency Medical Technician<\/strong><\/a> and Paramedic<\/strong><\/a>. The EMT is the first level and allows practice at the basic life support level. It also provides the foundation to become a Paramedic. Paramedics provide more extensive pre-hospital care than do EMTs and are trained in advanced life support measures.<\/p>\n

SPC also offers an A.S. degree program in Emergency Medical Services<\/a>. Our EMT and Paramedic programs are the first two occupational completion points for our EMS-AS. This A.S. degree transfers to our bachelor’s degrees in Public Safety Administration<\/a> or Health Services Administration<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"career<\/a>Congratulations to Team EMS on this tremendous success!<\/p>\n
