Professional EMS Training
& Education
At Brewster, we invest in the best for our customers and our team. We place high priority on making sure that our training is leading edge and the continuing education we
provide our team and first responder partners is state-of-the-art in accordance with current standards.
Because training and education are so critical to safe EMS performance and the care of patients, we have a dedicated training facility outfitted with the latest technology to deliver instruction in a variety of formats. Within this space we also have created sim labs with an operational ambulance and current equipment set up for hands-on practical clinical instruction by our most experienced EMTs and paramedics as well as our
certified instructors.
Brewster Ambulance Service and Comprehensive Medical Teaching Institute’s partnership allows both organizations to work together to recruit, hire and train individuals interested in becoming Emergency Medical Technicians and Paramedics.
