Miami County EMS is actively involved in the Explorer program, which
is a program that allows high school students who are interested
in the medical field to obtain "hands on" instruction
in the pre-hospital environment. Individuals interested in the Explorer
program, should contact Frank Burrow at Station
1.
Miami County EMS is also
actively involved in teaching CPR for both county employees and
private institutions.
Miami County EMS participates
in the annual children's "bicycle rodeo," which is an
event that stresses the importance of bicycle safety. Bicycle safety
measures are demonstrated and participating children are given a
free bicycle safety helmet. Also, a bicycle raffle is held at this
event, giving the children the opportunity to win a free bicycle!
Miami County EMS provides
medical stand-bys at sporting events throughout the county such
as football games, rodeos, races, and other requested events.
