Sub-Section 3-490-04 - Paramedic Academy Accreditation

CMH EMS Education Manual

The following is verbatim from Committee on Accreditation of Educational Programs for the Emergency Medical Services Professions (CoAEMSP) Policies and Procedures as required:

The Citizens Memorial Hospital Paramedic Program holds a Letter of Review, which is NOT a CAAHEP accreditation status, but is a status granted by the Committee on Accreditation of Educational Programs for the Emergency Medical Services Professions (CoAEMSP) signifying that a program seeking initial accreditation has demonstrated sufficient compliance with the accreditation Standards through the Letter of Review Self Study Report (LSSR) and other documentation. However, it is NOT a guarantee of eventual accreditation.

Students are eligible to test for licensure who begin class with a program and successfully graduate from a program that holds a letter of review or fully accredited and that program subsequently does not gain accreditation or loses accreditation.
