É«ÀÇÉçÇø EMS is a constantly expanding organization that is always looking for dedicated individuals to become a part of its tight-knit community. We provide opportunities for new members to ride on emergency calls as observers (thirds) to see if this is something they would like to get involved in and if EMS is a good fit for them. If a new member decides they like EMS and would like to continue with it they may be sent to EMT school for a NJ State Certification at a reduced cost! We also provide continuing education for our members and opportunities for them to further a career in the medical field through different programs like our É«ÀÇÉçÇø EMS - Cooper Mentoring program. This is a program that allows a select few members to be mentored by EM Physicians from Cooper University Hospital on getting into Medical School.
