Welcome to the WLAC Emergency Health Services Program
Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) respond to calls ranging from major emergencies to interfacility transports. EMTs also work in hospital emergency departments and clinics. In more healthcare settings, EMT-1 is the first step toward becoming a paramedic. Beginning with the study of anatomy and physiology, students gain an understanding of the causes, signs and symptoms, and treatment of all types of medical emergencies. Students supplement their medical knowledge through simulated patient care experience, observation time in an emergency department, and ride-alongs with local ambulances.
This program is offered in cooperation with UCLA's Center for Prehospital Care.
