EMS Training Tuesday! This fall, all Pittsburgh paramedics and emergency medical technicians will complete an 8-hour continuing education session at the EMS Training Division. Crews will participate in classroom education followed by scenario-based training in safe sedation practices, Emergency Vehicle Operations, Hazardous Materials Medicine, and Incident Command. This course ensures that the more than 200 providers at Pittsburgh EMS function as a well-trained team during complex incidents. Pittsburgh EMS provides all required continuing education internally through our Training Division, ensuring all providers have enough CEUs to keep their certifications up to date.

Happy Birthday, @CitiParks Schenley Park! From Flagstaff to Phipps, this 300 acre park has been the “Grand Dame” for nearly 140 years. Created from land donated by heiress Mary Schenely on October 30, 1889, Schenley holds a special pace in the hearts of Pittsburghers.

It took then Director of Public Works Edward Manning Bigelow sometime to convince Mrs. Schenley to donate the land. His success on this and subsequently Highland Park, led to him being known as the “Father of our Parks.”
