Activity Goal: 

The goal of Medical Orientation and Training School is to provide students the opportunity to learn basic life saving techniques for ill or injured patients while exploring the many careers available in the healthcare industry.  The knowledge obtained allows graduates to provide assistance in their community to a variety of emergencies until higher trained responders can arrive.  Additionally, the training provides opportunities for the students to experience command and support functions as identified in the National Incident Management System and learn to work in a team environment to accomplish goals specific to the care, treatment and extrication of injured patients.
