Indiana University Emergency Medical Service is a
student organization comprised of certified Indiana EMT-Basics and first aid
personnel. IU-EMS is privately hired by university departments, student
organizations, and community organizations to provide comprehensive emergency medical care to event
participants. The organization has a proud tradition of providing
emergency medical care at major university events, including the world-famous Little 500
bicycle races, as well as the Dance Marathon fundraiser for Riley Children's
Hospital in Indianapolis, which serves as a model for dance marathons around the
nation.
IU-EMS members also
individually volunteer to assist in instructing the practical skills portion of
the university's EMT-Basic course, HPER-H404. At the conclusion of each
semester, the organization hosts a state practical skills examination, one of
two examinations required for students to become EMT-certified. The
organization also provides first aid, CPR, and AED courses to its members as well as
to
the public. Finally, IU-EMS holds many of its own educational and social
functions for its members.
IU-EMS' mission for the
future is to continue to provide quality patient care at various university
events, to further expand its educational leadership, especially to the public,
and, finally, to establish a non-transport campus first response service in cooperation
with BHAS (Bloomington Hospital Ambulance Service). Such a response service will
allow IU students who call 911 and ask for an ambulance to receive professional
care sooner than they otherwise would, from fellow students who are familiar
with the campus' layout and that of its buildings.
