ABOUT US

The focus of this Section is to continue to push the boundaries of EMS and resuscitation science through education, research, and key partnerships.

Each year, the UW EMS team hosts medical students, residents, and visiting scholars from around the globe to expand their understanding of prehospital emergency medicine operations and research.

Resident Education

The goal of the EMS resident pathway is to train residents to better understand and manage EMS and pre-hospital care issues in their practice environment and allow residents to assess their interest in EMS as a career focus.EMS Tracks include the following...

  • Airlift Northwest/Air Medical track - focus on training to flight crew-level competency and expected to fly with the ALNW crews on patient missions.
  • Medic One/Ground EMS track - focus on longitudinal ground ride-time with Medic One paramedic units and MSOs.

Both tracks involve paramedic/flight nurse educational experiences, a longitudinal pre-hospital experience, event and mass-gathering medicine exposure, disaster management drill experiences, and a QI project.
