This week’s tip focuses on what it means to be an "eligible entity" to apply for CREATE funding. Since CREATE is a part of the provider grant through CDPHE, it’s important to understand exactly what kind of EMS entity can apply for funding. All recognized training center and state approved EMS provider can apply. If an applying entity is neither, or is looking to establish a new training facility or provider program, the entity must have some mechanism in place to prove certification of learning. For example, an non-recognized EMS provider can partner with a community college or training center to sign off on students’ course work under their accreditation.
Please direct all questions about entity eligibility to Lakesha Jones, Grant Manger, at lj@couralhealth.org or Samantha Hiner, Program Coordinator at sh@coruralhealth.org. For more information on CREATE, visit our web page at http://coruralhealth.org/programs/create/.
