We provide Basic Life Support (BLS) services through the use of highly trained, volunteer EMTs to students, faulty, staff, and visitors of the BC campus at a variety of campus events and functions. We also are responsible for running various training courses in the field of Emergency Medical Education and promoting EMS awareness to the entire university community.

What is an EMT?
An emergency medical technician (EMT) is a trained professional who responds to emergency medical situations, such as car accidents, fires, or injuries occurring in homes or workplaces. Here at Eagle EMS, our EMTs are trained to the EMT-Basic level, which allows us to deal with almost all types of medical and traumatic emergencies. We assist the BCPD and local EMS agencies in providing first response care to the BC campus.
