North Central Michigan College Expands EMS Program to Alpena and Gaylord

9 & 10 News May 24, 2021 North Central Michigan College is looking to help fill open EMS positions by expanding their own program to Alpena and Gaylord. Students can now complete EMS courses at the Alpena Fire Department and the college’s Gaylord Center with an opportunity to become nationally registered paramedics. The expansion gives them the opportunity to complete their studies elsewhere, instead of always having to visit Petoskey. They’ll learn trauma care, medical care, cardiac care, and how to identify cardiac events among other things. Dean of Career and Technical Education, North Central Michigan College Jim Cousino said this will help combat the EMS worker shortage.

NCMC Expands EMS Programs To Gaylord, Alpena

9 & 10 News May 24, 2021 The expansion comes at a good time to help address a critical shortage of EMS workers. According to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, there are more than 500 job openings for EMS professionals statewide. “In an emergency situation, we’re confident that an ambulance will arrive quickly, but it’s becoming more of a challenge for understaffed rural departments to fill the demand,” said Jim Cousino, dean of Career and Technical Education. “North Central is meeting that need.” At both NCMC’s Gaylord Center and the Alpena Fire Department, students can now complete EMS and paramedic courses leading to licensure as a nationally registered paramedic.
