Pro EMS Center for Medics operates one of the premiere paramedic programs and EMS simulation training labs in the Northeast.
As the first, and only, nationally accredited
paramedic program in the state of Massachusetts,
the Center for MEDICS offers one of the
most rigorous paramedic programs in the
U.S., as well as a variety of specialty
courses that are designed to allow EMS
service providers to achieve the highest
standards in the industry.
Our mission is to give EMS professionals
the opportunity to learn best practices
in emergency medicine; to educate them
about the latest innovations in technology;
and to encourage them to take a leadership
role in raising the standards of pre-hospital
patient care.
We work with all members
of the EMS community - from EMTs and
Paramedics to Firefighters, Police Officers,
Military Personnel, Physicians, and Nurses.
We encourage these professionals, as
well as those looking to join the EMS
field, to make a long-term commitment
to developing skills, and engaging in
an ongoing training regimen that promotes
continuous quality improvement for the
duration of their careers.
Cow Heart Dissection Practical Lab
Paramedic interns work with Pro EMS Center for MEDICS Medical Director Todd Thomsen on the dissection of a cow's heart during the launch of the program's Cardiology Module. Assisted by Lab Expert Megan Rand and CFM Instructor James Yeaton, interns learned to identify the anatomy of the heart, including its valves, veins, arteries, ventricles, atria and aorta, as well as the path of blood flow through the organ. After learning the anatomy, interns study the electrical activity, dysthymias and disease processes that they will need to be able to identify, and treat, patients in the field.
