ALABAMA EMS CHALLENGE

Alabama EMS Challenge is a free continuing education opportunity for EMS providers in the Greater Birmingham Area.
 

EMERGENCY VEHICLE OPERATOR COURSE

The goal for EVOC is to ensure, to the best of its ability, that appropriate ambulances are operated timely, adequately, and safely when transporting patients during their times of need. Emergency medical services have an obligation to serve the sick and injured while maintaining the safety of the public.
  Advanced Burn Life Support

Advanced Burn Life Support (ABLS) programs provide knowledge for immediate care of the burn patient up to the first 24-hours post injury. ABLS programs also support emergency preparedness and mass casualty incidents focusing on triage, burn survivability, prioritizing transport of patients, and patient treatment.
