EMTs provide out-of-hospital emergency medical care and transportation for critical and emergent patients who access the emergency medical services (EMS) system. EMTs have the basic knowledge and skills necessary to stabilize and safely transport patients ranging from non-emergency and routine medical transports to life-threatening emergencies.
EMTs function as part of a comprehensive EMS response system, under medical oversight. They perform interventions with the basic equipment typically found on an ambulance as a critical link between the scene of an emergency and the health care system.
On September 20th, EMT volunteers of the Greater Princeton Branch of AYLUS (GPA), such as Andrew Yao (4 hrs) and Katie Li (4 hrs), devoted their time to CPR and First Aid Training. They actively participated in volunteer services on duty at a local first aid squad, reinforcing their commitment to community well-being.
