What types of healthcare facilities are affiliated with the school for field and clinical rotations?
Texas EMS School is affiliated with a wide variety of healthcare facilities for both clinical and field training, including EMS agencies and hospitals with specialized departments. The hospitals we partner with include areas such as emergency rooms, pediatric specialty departments, intensive care units (ICUs), surgical units, and other specialized care areas, each operating under its own policies and procedures. These hospitals determine at their discretion whether students are able to participate in specific departments.
In addition to hospital settings, we also work closely with EMS agencies, giving students the opportunity to gain valuable hands-on experience in pre-hospital care. These affiliations provide students with comprehensive clinical exposure across a range of healthcare environments, ensuring they receive well-rounded training in both hospital and field settings.
