Advanced EMT
An Advanced Emergency Medical Technician (AEMT) is a healthcare professional trained to provide more advanced pre-hospital care than a basic EMT. They can perform procedures such as administering certain medications, placing advanced airways, and managing intravenous (IV) lines. AEMTs assess and treat patients with serious injuries or illnesses, often on emergency scenes or during transport to a hospital. Their training bridges basic emergency care and paramedicine, enabling them to stabilize patients more effectively in critical situations before hospital admission.
