Becoming an EMT requires dedication and time along with the spirit of  volunteerism and the willingness to continuously learn in a high risk  and challenging environment. The training that you will receive will  benefit you far beyond the reaches of the Malverne Volunteer Ambulance  Corps. Many of our members dedicate well over the required amount of  time needed to be in good standing with the ambulance corps. We seek  members that are looking to join a team and become a part of a family of dedicated EMS responders who volunteer their time to help render  medical aid to the residents of the Village of Malverne.
 

Below is a list of the 3 levels of Emergency Responders that Nassau County recognizes.
 

Certification received for completion for these courses is for a three-year period.  The EMS Academy provides initial and

re-certification courses for each  provider-level listed.


Certified First Responder (CFR) (51 hours) The CFR is the first level of emergency medical care in New  York State. CFR students are instructed in the skills of basic life  support and are prepared to stabilize a patient prior to the arrival of  the ambulance crew. PONSI approved: credit recommendation: 2 semester  hours


Emergency Medical Technician – Basic (EMT-B) (137 hours) EMTs are the basic level of EMS provider associated with an  ambulance service or rescue squad. These technicians are skilled in the  provision of basic life support for the many illnesses and accidents  that require emergency medical treatment prior to arrival in a hospital  emergency department. EMTs are trained in patient immobilization and  packaging procedures needed to prevent further injury and to provide  safe transport to an appropriate medical facility. NYS regulations  require that a certified ambulance service have a minimum of one EMT  with the patient at all times. PONSI approved: credit recommendation: 6  semester hours


Emergency Medical Technician – Critical Care (EMT-CC) (330 hours) Also known as “AMTs” or AEMTs, EMT-CCs are advanced life  support technicians certified to perform invasive and non-invasive  procedures during the most life threatening of medical conditions.  EMT-CCs are authorized to perform intravenous infusions, injections of  medications, advanced airway management (endotracheal tube placement),  electrocardiograph (EKG) monitoring and interpretation, cardioversion  and artificial pacing of a diseased heart. They are also trained to  provide advanced level medical care to victims of trauma. PONSI  approved: credit recommendation: 10 semester hou
