How to Become an EMT in Connecticut with RC Health Services
RC Health Services EMS Academy is a leading provider of EMS courses across the USA, offering a comprehensive pathway to National Registry EMT (NREMT) certification. While we are not approved to offer direct state licensure in Connecticut, we provide National Registry training that meets the highest standards for EMS education.
Students from Connecticut can enroll in our flexible online courses, but they must travel to one of our 15+ locations nationwide to complete the required hands-on skills training, testing, and ambulance ride-alongs. Our facilities, located in major cities throughout the country, provide the practical training needed to succeed as an EMT.
RC Health Services has been training EMS professionals since 2010. Co-founded by CEO Robert Chambers and veteran instructor Michael Lindamood, our academy is known for excellence in EMS education. Mr. Lindamood, with over 30 years of experience, played a critical role in shaping our programs and remains an adviser and instructor at our Pearland, TX facility, which trains more EMTs than any other campus in our network.
Take the first step toward your NREMT certification and a rewarding career in EMS today. Although Connecticut residents will need to travel for hands-on sessions, our online learning platform makes it easier than ever to balance training with your personal schedule.
