Our EMT, Nurse Assistant, and Fire Science students were visited by UVA Health's Pegasus reps as well as Charlottesville-UVA-Albemarle Emergency Communications Center reps to discuss the role critical care plays in these three emergency service programs. Students go to tour the Pegasus Ground ambulance and learn interesting facts about 911 history. Did you know the first 911 service was set up in Alabama? @uvahealth @uvapegasus
