National EMS Week, May 17-23, 2015, is the perfect time to honor your local EMS professionals and promote awareness of their everyday service to the public. EMS is much more than a ride to the hospital. It is a system of coordinated response and emergency medical care, involving multiple people and agencies.

As we take the opportunity to THANK our state’s EMS providers, we wanted to remind you about the CREATE program. CREATE assists private and public organizations in improving and expanding the emergency medical and trauma system in Colorado.
Specifically the program offers a 50% cash match to provide funding to EMTS agencies for education and training of emergency medical and trauma service providers working in Colorado.
In order to access the CREATE grant application, you must complete the 5 pre-application steps first. To learn more visit https://coruralhealth.org/create.
