Join Villanova EMS
Villanova EMS is constantly looking for students committed to helping others. Our members gain valuable leadership skills, knowledge, and experience as they deliver professional and quality care to the Villanova community. All majors are welcome.

are expected to:
- be (or become) trained/certified in CPR/First Aid,

Though only CPR/First Aid certification is required to join, all members are encouraged to seek a higher level of training as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) or First Responder.
