EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES - PARAMEDIC/FIREFIGHTER
Center Campus

Along with the skills and training in the EMT/Paramedic specialty, the Fire Academy enables students to learn at our state-of-the-art Burn Tower the skills that they need to fight fires.

Additional expenses to be met by the student are (1) a health history and physical examination including testing for tuberculosis and immunizations for Hepatitis B, Rubella and Rubeola; (2) uniforms; (3) hospitalization insurance as neither the clinical facilities nor the college insures the student against accidents or illness; (4) clinical packs; and (5) academy costs.

The Associate of Applied Science degree in Emergency Medical Services-Paramedic/Firefighter program is accredited by the Michigan Department of Community Health, EMS and Trauma Systems Section, 201 Townsend Street, Lansing, Michigan 48913, 517.241.3026.
