Each May, Emergency Medical Services professionals are celebrated during EMS Week. In 2023, EMS week is May 21 - 27. Public Safety Group wants to take this opportunity to celebrate instructors and those who work hard to ensure the next cohort of EMS providers in the field are the most prepared yet.EMS Week was officially established in 1974 by President Gerald Ford, and is presented through a partnership between the American College of Emergency Physicians and NAEMT. This year's theme is “Where Emergency Care Begins.”

Often practitioners in the field themselves, EMS instructors need to ensure their students are getting everything they need—be it in a flipped classroom, through distance learning, or in the field—with the goal that students will not simply pass tests and meet on-paper requirements, but also be prepared for the day-to-day challenges of their chosen occupation.  

• Teach students how to stay safe during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic,  

• Teach students how to keep themselves protected while in the field,  

• Navigate, assess and address mental health issues in their students, and 

• Adapt to the shifting learning needs of today’s students while navigating changing critical care regulations and best practices.  

PSG’s goal is to give instructors the resources they need to empower the next generation of EMS workers, and to ready them for work in the field. See below for four key products available in various formats.
