Seneca Area Emergency Services

There are more than 54,000 EMS members at over 1,500 companies in Pennsylvania. Collectively, these First Responders, Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and Paramedics respond to over 1.7 million emergency calls each year.

Emergency medical technicians, paramedics and first responders save countless lives every day. There are many people who are still alive because of the quick response of trained EMS professionals who are able to administer medical attention on the spot to victims who may not have a moment to lose. Pennsylvania's EMS Recruitment Campaign movie trailer gives a glimpse at what EMS is all about. In addition, the The Center for Workforce Information & Analysis of the PA Department of Labor & Industry web site provides a video description of the job of Emergency Medical Technicians and Paramedics.
