Emergency Medical Services Education Programs
Emergency Medical Services Education Programs Student Manual 2021 Grady EMS Education Academy 2284 Marietta Boulevard NW | Atlanta, Georgia | 30318 404.616.7414 P a g e | 1 Contents Introduction EMS Education Programs Student Manual Revised January 2021 P a g e | 2 Description of the EMS Professions EMTs and Paramedics have fulfilled prescribed requirements by a credentialing agency to practice the art and science of out-of-hospital medicine in conjunction with physician oversight. Through performance of assessments and delegated medical practice, their goal is to prevent and reduce mortality and morbidity due to illness and injury. EMTs and Paramedics primarily provide care to emergency patients in an out-of-hospital setting. EMTs and Paramedics possess the knowledge, skills and attitudes consistent with the expectations of the public of medical professionals. EMTs and Paramedics recognize that they are an essential component of the continuum of care and serve as linkages among health resources. EMTs and Paramedics strive to maintain high quality, reasonable cost health care by delivering patients directly to appropriate facilities. As an advocate for patients, paramedics seek to be proactive in affecting long term health care by working in conjunction with other provider agencies, networks, and organizations. The emerging roles and responsibilities of the EMT and Paramedic include public education, health promotion, and participation in injury and illness prevention programs. As the scope of service continues to expand, the EMT and Paramedic will function as a facilitator of access to care, critical care practitioners, as well as an initial treatment provider. EMT and Paramedic are responsible and accountable to medical direction, the public, and their peers.

Volunteers Serve As Winship Ambassadors
Spring/Summer 2015 THE NEWSLETTER FOR DONORS OF WINSHIP CANCER INSTITUTE OF EMORY UNIVERSITY • VOL.5, NO. 1 Winship celebrates our dedicated volunteers during National Volunteer Week at the Clifton Road campus. Pictured left to right Kimberly Choi, Elizabeth Mabry, Ouida Lanier, Linda Zimmerman, Angel Rogers, and Celia Curtis. Volunteers Serve as Winship Ambassadors hen Helene Rabinowitch lost her daughter, Jamie Rabinowitch Davis, to melanoma 12 years ago, she, her husband Barry, and her daughter Renee, decided they wanted to give something back to the physicians and staff at WWinship Cancer Institute who had taken care of her family during a difficult time. “I couldn’t forget that the people at Winship supported us when we needed them most,” she said. The family established The JRD Foundation for Melanoma Research in their daughter’s name, and Rabinowitch decided to become a volunteer in the clinic. “I volunteer here because this is where I belong,” she said, reflecting on the friendships she has formed over the years. “If you’re willing to give your time, you will find it is very ewarr ding.” Rabinowitch is one of over 800 volunteers serving the Winship community each year. “Our volunteers are Winship’s ambassadors, and we are very thankful to have such wonderful individuals as part of our team,” said DaVida Lee-Williams, Director of Guest & Volunteer Services. “They are committed to ensuring that all who walk through our doors are welcomed and supported.” Like Rabinowitch, many devote their time at one of Winship’s metro Atlanta locations, bringing the hospitality cart to families in the waiting room, giving out information at the concierge desk, or visiting with patients in the Ambulatory Infusion Center.
