Northern Lakes College will launch an Integrated Fire and Emergency Medical Services program this September. The program combines firefighter training with the institution’s existing Primary Care Paramedic (PCP) program and will give students the opportunity to participate in hands-on firefighter training provided by the Lesser Slave Regional Fire Service. “This partnership with the Lesser Slave Regional Fire Service provides students with an exciting opportunity to work as a firefighter and paramedic in a variety of settings, including fire stations, EMS, and integrated emergency service providers,” said Northern Lakes Dean of Health, Human Services & University Studies Dr Michelle Mitchell.
