Welcome... 

 

Since 1974, OEMSA, formally the Oregon State Paramedic Association (OSPA), has been and remains Oregon's only statewide association representing all levels of prehospital EMS care providers: First Responders, EMT-Basics, EMT-Intermediates, and Paramedics. 

 

In 2009, OSPA changed their mission and membership to include ALL professions that provide prehospital care and/or ambulance transportation in Oregon, opening membership to RNs, PAs and physicians.  If you meet the legal requirements to provide pre-hospital care and/or ambulance service in Oregon, OEMSA is your organization. 

 

As a non-profit, tax-exempt organization since 1982 and the official NAEMT affiliate for Oregon, we welcome you to our web site.

 

OEMSA's Mission: 

   “To promote excellence in the delivery of prehospital emergency medical services.”

 

 

   OEMSA's Objectives: 

 

Communicate: Better communication between EMS personnel and the communities we serve.

Educate: Educational advancement of EMS providers in prehospital care services.

Advocate: Advocate for EMS providers and improved patient care through research, public education, and initiation of local, state and national activities and legislative actions.
