Building Volunteer Program for College Campus

[GAmedic1506]

Contact Dekalb County Public Safety in Decatur GA or Emory University (which is located in Dekalb Co). Emory started a first responder program years ago, my guess is around 1990-1992. Since it has been in operation for a long time, I imagine they can give you good advice on the problems that have occured since day one. The program had two great benefits, in that medical students got experience, and they were able to cut the number of responses that ground 911 ambulances had to respond for typical college low-actuity 911 calls. So both the university and the county 911 service benefited. Sorry that I do not have a phone number, but i am sure they can be found fairly easy with a google search.
