Non-profit and publicly funded EMS agencies operating in Kentucky are invited to apply for funding to establish or expand community paramedicine programs that connect residents to care before and after emergencies.
From Crisis to Care: EMS Training Equipment Quality and Offer Mobile Training Units
Kentucky RHT invested in building the capacity of Emergency Medical Services education and hands-on skills training across Kentucky. Kentucky-based TEI agencies are invited to apply for funding to support the growth of hands-on skills training at their local sites.
From Crisis to Care: EMS Transformation
Kentucky RHT is investing in expanding the care options available to EMS agencies in rural communities.
