First Responder

Paramedics and Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) save lives and make critical decisions by responding to emergency medical calls. Motlow's EMS program prepares you with the tools to save lives. This is a fast paced, high-energy program and we expect you to utilize those characteristics when you exit the program. EMS graduates are detail-oriented, empathetic, compassionate, and systematic, and can be authoritative and directive.
