Media release from AdventHealth Redmond:
AdventHealth Redmond EMS is pleased to announce the launch of a new paramedic training program on April 8, expanding opportunities for local caregivers while enhancing emergency medical care for the communities of Northwest Georgia.
AdventHealth Redmond EMS has enrolled its first paramedic training cohort, made up of 16 AdventHealth team members who are certified EMTs. Upon completion of this inaugural class, the program will submit outcomes documentation in pursuit of full accreditation. The 45 week program is currently offered exclusively to AdventHealth EMTs and is available at a significantly reduced cost compared to traditional training pathways.
“Launching this program allows our team members to expand their knowledge and skills so they can better serve our community and care for patients during some of life’s most critical moments,” said Nina Piatt, EMS captain and paramedic program director.
Designed to develop highly trained, compassionate paramedics, the program focuses on advanced clinical knowledge, hands on experience and patient centered emergency care. By investing in the education and growth of its own caregivers, AdventHealth Redmond EMS is building a stronger, more resilient emergency response system that improves outcomes for patients across the region.
“I am incredibly proud of our leadership team for bringing this paramedic program to AdventHealth Redmond,” said Scotty Hancock, director of business development and EMS at AdventHealth Georgia. “This investment reflects our commitment to growing the next generation of paramedics and strengthening emergency care for the community we serve. I’m excited to see this program grow and the impact it will make for years to come.”
The new training program also supports workforce development by creating clear, meaningful career pathways for EMS professionals. Graduates of the program will be equipped to provide advanced life saving care, help reduce response times, and ensure that patients receive high quality treatment when it matters most.
Rooted in AdventHealth’s mission to extend the healing ministry of Christ, the program reflects a continued commitment to whole person care by supporting not only physical health, but also hope, confidence and peace of mind for patients and families during emergencies.
