EMS Driver Refresher Training

EMS Drivers are required to complete an initial EMS Driver course. There is currently no BEMS approved refresher training course for EMS Driver recertification with the exception of BEMS approved vehicle operation monitoring system (see note below).

Note: Licensed ambulance services operating approved vehicle operation monitoring systems are required to repeat the didactic section of their training program and submit a copy of the latest employer approved performance driver monitor strip/record.
