Educational Resources

Making education available to our community is important to the Alameda County EMS Agency. Check out some of the helpful resources and links below.

Appropriate use of 911 is critical. Inappropriate us of 911 diverts Emergency Medical professionals from those who need them most.

The Alameda County EMS Agency actively participates in nationwide Emergency Medical Services for Children (EMS-C) initiative. The EMS-C initiative reduces child and youth mortality and morbidity resulting from severe illness or trauma. This includes educating and preparing our community members who have or care for children.
