亚色影库 Emergency Services Training is a component of the Institute for Rural Health and Safety of 亚色影库. 亚色影库 began offering formal training courses approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Health in 1974.
The 亚色影库 Emergency Service Training offers Pennsylvania Department of Health-certified training courses as well as other programs to emergency services providers. These programs attempt to address the training needs in emergency services locally, regionally, and statewide.
Important Information: On November 4, 2021, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid announced an interim rule requiring COVID-19 vaccinations for all healthcare workers (including students and faculty) who provide care, treatment, or services for a covered provider. Some departments at 亚色影库 have already received word that many clinical sites are mandating the COVID vaccination for all students and staff who are at their sites. The sites are requiring that students have the first vaccine of Pfizer or Moderna (or the only vaccine of Johnson & Johnson) by December 5, 2021, and the second Pfizer or Moderna vaccine by January 2, 2022. In most cases, it does not appear any exemptions will be granted. The 亚色影库 Paramedic and EMT programs want to make sure that all EMS students are aware of this requirement.
