With profound sadness, SMCC shares the news of the passing of our colleague, David Tauber.

David was a valued member of the Southern Maine Community College community and the dedicated program chair of our EMS and Paramedicine programs. His career in emergency medical services began in 1971, and he became a paramedic in 1980. Over more than five decades of service, David worked in municipal Fire-Rescue, served as a medic and hazmat technician on a FEMA Urban Search and Rescue task force, led a 911 EMS agency, and worked in high-volume urban, suburban, rural and wilderness rescue systems.

An EMS instructor since 1976, David helped educate and prepare generations of emergency medical professionals. He directed several paramedic programs, including eight years as program director at Yale New Haven Hospital/Yale School of Medicine, and held a bachelor’s degree in EMS Management from George Washington University.

Through his commitment to education, service and the healthcare profession, David helped prepare countless students for careers dedicated to helping others in their moments of greatest need. His contributions to the College, our students and the EMS community will not be forgotten.

We extend our deepest condolences to David’s family, friends, colleagues, students and all those whose lives he touched. Please keep David’s loved ones and members of our EMS and Paramedicine community in your thoughts during this difficult time.
