Show Notes
Students at UW-Madison advocate for a student-run emergency medical service, BadgerEMS, to alleviate the strain on campus healthcare during peak times. Despite concerns from fire department leaders about response times and potential overlap with professionals, BadgerEMS leaders emphasize the benefits of student-led care, including increased comfort for students and valuable training opportunities amidst Wisconsins EMS worker shortage. Officials are open to collaboration, potentially starting with stadium events, and student government is exploring funding options. This initiative reflects a growing trend of student-led EMS services across the nation.
