Training

Center For MEDICS

The first accredited paramedic program in Massachusetts, CFM runs a nine-month program with three cohorts a year, each with roughly 40 students. CFM has clinical sites in a variety of settings, including BIDMC, Brigham & Women’s Hospital, Lahey Clinic, South Shore Hospital, Cambridge Health Alliance, and Mount Auburn Hospital. Field time is conducted at a variety of ambulance services, fire departments and Boston Medflight. 

We provide many new paramedics to EMS agencies and fire departments in the Boston metro area. In addition to the paramedic program, CFM is an American Heart Association Authorized Training Center and an NAEMT approved training site. CFM runs two EMT programs a year exclusively for Harvard CrimsonEMS and MIT EMS, the student-run EMS organizations at their respective universities.
