Primary Care Paramedic

Overview

Assiniboine anticipates offering a one-year Primary Care Paramedic (PCP) certificate program designed to prepare students for front-line roles in pre-hospital care. PCPs are essential healthcare providers who respond to both emergency and non-emergency calls, delivering patient care in a variety of settings, including ambulances, industrial sites, air medical transport, and community-based environments.

Building on the foundational knowledge of Emergency Medical Responders (EMRs), the PCP program is expected to develop key skills in basic and limited advanced life support, including airway management, defibrillation, IV therapy, and medication administration. With a strong emphasis on patient assessment and clinical decision-making, this program will prepare graduates to handle complex medical scenarios and contribute meaningfully to emergency healthcare teams.
