National EMS Academy celebrates recent Houma EMT graduate

The National EMS Academy, a sister company of Acadian Ambulance, is celebrating its recent EMT graduating class.

The Houma campus had one graduate of its most recent course, Ms. Tressa Williams. The EMT course covers Basic Life Support (BLS) concepts, including patient assessment, airway management, trauma management, cardiovascular emergencies, pediatric care, and many other concepts that are needed to treat members of the community.

All of the graduates are eligible to take the National Registry of EMT exam, and upon passing they are eligible to begin working as EMTs.

“Our graduates have overcome various challenges and obstacles throughout their time as EMT students. We are proud of the hard work and dedication they’ve exhibited,” said Program Manager Timothy Dronet.

The National EMS Academy has EMT classes beginning throughout the year. For more information on the benefits of a career in EMS and to enroll, visit www.BecomeAMedic.com.
