Chester County EMS is committed to advancing the skills of our Basic Life Support (BLS) providers through our partnership with Apprenticeship Carolina and York Technical College. Our apprenticeship program is designed to guide BLS providers as they develop the expertise needed to transition to Advanced Life Support (ALS) roles, ensuring a stronger, more skilled workforce.  By investing in their education and hands-on experience, we create a talent pipeline that enhances our EMS team’s capabilities and supports the healthcare needs of our community.

"Our apprenticeship program at Chester County EMS helps bridge the gap between BLS and ALS by providing structured, on-the-job training. This approach not only strengthens our workforce but also addresses the growing demand for highly skilled EMS professionals in our industry. The program is an integral part of our mission to deliver top-quality care to our citizens, and it ensures that we are continually developing our talent to meet the evolving needs of emergency medical services." - John Faulkner MBA, NRP, Deputy Director of Emergency Services
