Community Awareness
National EMS Week will be celebrated nationwide this year Sunday, May 21 to Saturday, May 27. Wednesday, May 24 is Emergency Medical Services for Children (EMSC) Day.
The opportunity brings with it local awareness of emergency medical services, and quite often includes community open houses, volunteer recruitment and hiring drives, and opportunities for appreciation, recognition and goodwill.
The 2017 theme is "EMS STRONG: Always in Service".
National EMS Week was established by the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP), and is in partnership with the National Association of EMTs.
