With our Paramedics and EMTs responding to well over 100 calls for service per day on average, being able to safely drive to our patients and later transport them to the hospital is a high priority for our Training and Safety team. Over the last two days, our newest providers have been taking our Emergency Vehicle Operator Safety course as part of their academy. The course focuses on best practices of safe driving, specific hazards that could lead to a collision and how to avoid them, and ambulance capabilities and maneuverability. We also require all our veteran Paramedics and EMTs to re-certify on the EVOS driving course every year. Safety on the road is so important, which is why we invest a lot of time and training into it.
