Mission

The primary objective of the Paramedic certificate program is to prepare students to sit for licensure as a paramedic in the state of Connecticut. Providers will learn to perform a comprehensive evaluation of that patient's condition and apply life-saving care, as necessary. The student will be exposed to a wide variety of victim situations, including direct patient care in local hospitals and on emergency vehicles. This program follows the National Standard Paramedic Curriculum published by the Department of Transportation, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The program utilizes state of the art technology for a perfect blend of classroom, laboratory, clinical and field education. Upon successful completion, graduates will be eligible to take the state licensure exam as approved by the Department of Public Health, Office of Emergency Medical Services (OEMS). Graduates of this program provide the most extensive pre-hospital care and may work for fire departments, private ambulance services, police departments, aeromedical care, or hospitals.
