GEMSA Trauma Courses ApplicationS DuE JUNE 15, 2024
The Georgia EMS Association is accepting applications for the Trauma Course Grant. Classes are to be conducted between July 1, 2024 and March 15, 2025. It is our hope that we partner with the Georgia Trauma Commission to provide these Grants. In anticipation of this we are seeking applications early in the process.
The purpose of this is to provide lead instructors with the information necessary to seek approval through GEMSA for the use of these funds.
Approved courses available for this funding include: Pre-Hospital Trauma Life Support (PHTLS), Advanced Medical Life Support (AMLS), International Trauma Life Support (ITLS), Geriatric Education for EMS (GEMS), and Emergency Pediatric Care (EPC) programs at a maximum of $5,850.00 per course (as designated by the GEMSA Trauma Course Grant Agreement. ALL applicants awarded grants must abide by rules in the Trauma Course Grant Agreement and sign, initial and return the completed document to GEMSA within 2 weeks of Grant being awarded).These funds are provided to ensure participants can attend these programs at no charge. Our goal is to reach ‘statewide’ and make this training accessible to as many providers as possible. The class must be an ‘open’ registration course and not limited to a specific set group. This is a competitive Grant.
