Bedford County Emergency Medical Responder

During the mid 90’s Bedford County EMS began its First Responder program in Bell Buckle with only a hand full of responders. Now, nearly 30 years later the Bedford County EMS Emergency Medical Responder program has grown to more than 60 Responders located in the communities of Bell Buckle, Unionville, Wartrace, Flat Creek, Wheel and within the city limits of Shelbyville.

These Responders consist of firefighters, law enforcement and EMS personnel.

With continued growth, Emergency Medical Responders are essential to the rapid response and care of the citizens of Bedford County.

Emergency Medical Responder Initial: This course, adhering to current Department of Transportation National Guidelines, is designed for individuals working in the fire, law enforcement, industrial environments, school teachers, or any other person that may be the first to respond to an emergency.
