EMT School

We are currently following a COVID-19 Social Distancing Educational Plan


Registration for the Summer 2021 Courses will open March 1st, 2021 and will close April 26th, 2021.  See additional course information below.


Our courses will be a hybrid learning course for the summer. Please read the information pertaining to each course below.



About our course

Why Choose Denver Health Paramedics EMS Education - EMT Training Program?

The Paramedic Division at Denver Health Medical Center responds to over 110,000 calls per year. Our EMT students get the opportunity to learn in a high-volume, fast paced urban setting, gaining practical experience unmatched by any other EMT program in Colorado. Riding along with the Denver Health Paramedic Division promises exposure to a wide variety of clinical situations. During the course, students receive approximately 150 hours of both didactic and skills training from paramedics who actively work in the field.  In addition, EMT students have the opportunity to complete a shift in one of the busiest emergency departments in the region with both adult and pediatric trauma capabilities. Due to COVID-19 restrictions we are currently unable to offer time in the emergency department or a Denver Health Ambulance. We hope we will be able to do so soon!


The Denver Health Paramedics EMT training program follows the National Emergency Medical Services Education Standards and is designed to teach students basic medical skills needed to respond in an emergency situation. Once completed you are eligible to test for the National Registry EMT Certification. Once NREMT certified you can apply for your Colorado State EMT Certification. 


Our EMT Course

This course will provide the Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) student the knowledge and skills required to provide appropriate emergency care and transportation of patients suffering from traumatic insult/injury and/or of medical nature.  Attendance and success of the EMT course requirements will qualify and prepare the learner to sit for the NREMT online exam and participate in the NREMT psychomotor final, although does not guarantee certification. 

Application Process Details

We operate under the first come first serve philosophy. We strongly encourage you to complete all the following steps as soon as possible as our courses tend to fill very fast. We begin accepting students as soon as they have completed the process listed below. If a course fills before the deadline it will close to any additional students. 


APPLICATION PROCESS

Step 2: You will receive an email confirming that your application was received. 


Step 3: Once we have determined that your documents comply, you will then receive an approval email with a link to the tuition agreement.

Reviews

 

"You're going to be there when a lot of people are born, and when a lot of people die. In most every culture, such moments are regarded as sacred and private, made special by a divine presence. No one on Earth would be welcomed, but you are personally invited. What an honor that is."
