EMS OPEN HOUSE PUBLIC May 2012

Becoming an EMT or Paramedic!

Emergency Medical Services is a career field filled with excitement, rewards, public service and at times tasks that require routine work. Research indicates EMS providers love the work they do, are committed to patient care, enjoy the education, the “team work” part of work life and wish they were paid more for their services. Mental stability, physical fitness and remaining “calm,” during the storm of activities one faces as an EMT are important attributes of EMS professionals. Often used as an entry portal for other health care professions, EMS can be an enjoyable and rewarding life’s work.

Education Requirements

First Responder 58hrs

EMT 150 hrs

Paramedic 1200hrs

We Got the Beat!

Thank you for your past gifts to the Rice Health Foundation's annual employee campaigns.

Last year's campaign raised more than $54,000 toward the Healing and Therapy Garden project at Rice Care Center.

The 2012 "We Got the Beat" Employee Campaign will invest in the latest life-saving cardiac technology. The LUCAS Chest compression System performs uninterrupted and steady chest compressions efficiently and effectively.

It helps keep oxygenated blood flowing to vital organs like the heart and brain. LUCAS is portable and can be used anywhere there is a cardiac emergency.

To make your gift to the 2012 "We Got the Beat" Employee Campaign, stop by the Rice Health Foundation today.
