American Paramedic Association

The American Paramedic Association (APA) is a professional organization that supports paramedics—advanced emergency medical responders—by promoting high standards of education, practice, and advocacy within the field. It helps ensure paramedics are well-trained, equipped, and recognized for their vital role in pre-hospital emergency care. The APA also provides resources, continuing education, and a platform for networking and professional development to improve patient outcomes and enhance the quality of emergency medical services across the country.
