Aspiring FDNY Emergency Medical Technicians received a closer look into their future career today as participants in the Office of Recruitment and Retention’s EMS Mobile Academy at Station 58 in Brooklyn. As part of today’s sessions, attendees trained in CPR, Lifting, Bleeding Control, Oxygen Administration and more to gain insight into working as a first responder.
The FDNY Mobile Academy is an interative initiative that brings components of our Proby School training to communities around New York City to help educate prospective members about joining our Department. View more photos from this latest training here.
During this latest EMS Mobile Academy, attendees toured our emergency vehicles to learn how they assist FDNY members in saving lives throughout New York City.
