We have been a long standing program that is committed to enriching our students through high quality classroom, laboratory, and clinical experiences.
The Southern Maine Community College Emergency Medical Services Department is dedicated to bringing Maine and northern New England an immersive education experience in EMS. SMCC was an early adopter of simulation mannequins in EMS education and has multiple simulation labs on its campus to facilitate hands on learning experiences for the students. We continue to put students first and welcome you to visit us at our South Portland campus.
