Once you’ve applied to become an EMT with the FDNY, it’s important to begin preparing for entry into the FDNY EMS Academy. The Academy’s goal is to equip probationary EMTs with more than just physical readiness; it also focuses on preparing them mentally and emotionally for the profession, the career ahead, and the challenges they may face in the field. Instructors will provide support in the classroom, during physical training, and in helping future FDNY EMTs become the best versions of themsel

Each year during the third week of May, the FDNY celebrates National EMS Week, a time to recognize and honor the lifesaving efforts of EMTs and paramedics across our city and the country. “EMS is a critical service for this city. EMS Week is important to us here. It really is a good bonding moment,” said EMT Santangelo of Station 46. | New York City Fire Department (FDNY)
