The additional burdens placed on EMS systems and personnel during the pandemic made a serious problem even worse, pushing many EMS systems in our country to the breaking point. Most communities are facing crisis-level shortages of EMS personnel, and many have seen EMS agencies close altogether, removing a critical lifeline from these communities. The shortage of EMS personnel threatens to undermine our emergency 9-1-1 response infrastructure; Expand the Hospital Preparedness Program, authorized by the Pandemic and All Hazards Preparedness Act (PAHPA), to include $50 million to fund an EMS Preparedness and Response Workforce Shortage Program. Funds from this grant program would support recruitment, retention, and training of EMS personnel including tuition and associated expenses for paramedic and EMT training courses; expenses for required continuing education courses; and costs related to licensure and certification; Make EMS eligible for federal grants offered through the Department of Labor and other agencies for apprenticeship programs. Apprenticeship programs have historically been used to spur workforce development or expansion in sectors of the economy that need workers.
