The WDTC Paramedic Program is committed to educational excellence and attention to detail both in the Paramedic Program and in its students. To this end, we hold to the following core values:
- We will provide pre-hospital healthcare education to our students to practice within the scope-of-practice described in the DOT Paramedic Curriculum.
- As advocates of our students and our patients, we believe our students will achieve EMS excellence using the critical thinking and assessment based management process through the integration of:
- Anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology
- Appropriate patient assessment
- Determination of a field or paramedic differential diagnosis
- Implementation of a treatment plan using national and local standards protocols
- The program will always ensure both instructional quality and student safety in the classroom, skill lab, and clinical and field clinical environments
- The faculty desire that all students succeed to be safe and competent EMS providers
- We will promote lifelong learning to our students.
