Morgan County Ambulance provides a minimum of one hour continuing EMS education to its members at the monthly staff meeting held the first Tuesday evening of each month from 6 p.m. until 9 p.m. Guest speakers are brought in for the one hour lecture plus, full time staff members are required to research an assigned topic and provide a minimum of a 30 minute educational lecture. These classes are open to anyone needing the continuing education hours.

Members of the service are also provided with the education needed to maintain their minimum certification requirements. (ACLS, PALS, NRP, ATLS, ABLS, PHTLS, ABLS, etc.) CPR, First Responder and EMT classes are available to members of the Cadet Program.

Morgan County Ambulance is also very active in public education. Our employees teach public classes in CPR and advanced first aid, baby sitter classes, and safety and awareness classes to local school children. In 2006, Morgan County Ambulance was also instrumental in placing Automatic External Defibrillators in every school in Morgan County. In addition to this, the staff also trained school faculty and staff in CPR and how to use the defibrillators. Later that same year, we offered free CPR classes to local Spanish speaking community members.
