We provide coverage for such events as the Taste of Tippecanoe, the Feast of the Hunter's Moon, Dancing in the Streets, the Tippecanoe County Fair and many other events.
Ongoing Training
Pre-hospital emergency medicine still a relatively new field in medicine; therefore emergency personnel are required to continually expand their knowledge base to stay current on the latest life-saving techniques. Their expertise must span from infants to the elderly patient, each with his/her own needs and influenced by many multicultural backgrounds. If this is an emergency, call 911. The Tippecanoe Emergency Ambulance Service personnel are ready to respond 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
EMS Ambulance SIM Lab
The EMS Ambulance Sim Lab features everything you would have on an ambulance still in use. This EMS Ambulance Sim Lab is used for training new hires but is also available for use by anyone who wants to do pre-hospital first aid training that works with TEAS, like volunteer fire departments, paid fire departments, etc.
