Meet our newest managers!

EMS250914_MeetTheManagers600x400_250917

The EMSC Program is thrilled to introduce three new State Partnership Program managers for Ohio, Virginia, and Wyoming. State Partnership Program managers are vital to the EMSC Program because they work to expand and improve emergency care for children in real-time and at the community and state level. They do this in part by working on performance measures as outlined by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). Learn more.
