dues due Important message from the President of LANREMT,
It is time for us to begin collecting dues. We suspended the collection of dues during the COVID-19 epidemic. We only made one change to the dues structure. To simplify it for you and us (the Board of Directors), we instituted a twelve-month membership plan that begins the day you sign up and ends one year later, eliminating the worries about prorating or charging more for a part of the year.
We have a very easy process for joining LANREMT. Simply go to the LANREMT website at lanremt.com hover over the Join LANREMT button and press the Membership Plan Tab. You will then be directed to choose which membership to join. Follow the process and then pay by mail, PayPal or now credit card. If you have already signed up on the website and did not pay dues, you can enter your login and password and continue with the process.
We hope that all of you will choose to join LANREMT. We can only be as strong as our membership and your participation. We had a Board of Directors meeting last week and it was a very productive and exciting meeting.

Board of Directors Meeting

Louisiana Association of Nationally Registered Emergency Medical Technicians

LANREMT's mission is the enhancement of the EMS profession through advocacy, education, and awareness. Founded in 1976, LANREMT works with many EMS associations in Louisiana to strengthen the EMS System and to ensure quality patient care. LANREMT is the state affiliate of the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians, NREMT, and is a member of the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians, NAEMT.

LANREMT is the only statewide voice for more than 20,000 EMS personnel in Louisiana. Only about 20% of the 20,000 plus emergency medical personnel in Louisiana work full-time as EMS providers. The remaining 80% are members of volunteer rescue squads in their community or workplace. It is through the support of corporations and other caring individuals that LANREMT is able to continue working to improve EMS in Louisiana.

LANREMT members sit on every major E.M.S. board and task force, working to improve EMS in Louisiana. Some of the many committees are The Education Sub-Committee, The Clinical Care Sub-Committee, The Communications Sub-Committee, The Disaster Sub-Committee, The EMS Terrorism Preparedness Sub-Committee, LERN and The EMS Task Force.

LANREMT sponsors a statewide educational conference. Each year we bring in speakers from around the country. Select "Annual Conference" for more information. LANREMT members receive a discount on their conference registration fee. Many of our chapters sponsor local workshops and refresher courses.

LANREMT maintains a Facebook page and it is there you will find the most timely and up-to-date information on our activities.

Louisiana First Responders to Receive Tuition Discount at Tulane SoPA

NEW ORLEANS—The Louisiana Office of State Fire Marshal (LASFM) and Tulane University's School of Professional Advancement (SoPA) announce a collaboration that will provide valuable educational opportunities to LASFM employees and fire service members through a 20% discount on tuition for undergraduate and graduate courses at Tulane SoPA.

This partnership underscores LASFM's commitment to the continued professional development and education of its workforce. It ensures that employees have access to high-quality, flexible academic programs designed to meet the demands of their careers and personal growth.

"Louisiana Office of State Fire Marshal is a perfect partner for Tulane SoPA as we both share a mission to provide continued education and skill development for public servants," said Dr. Michael Wallace, director of the Emergency and Security Studies program at Tulane SoPA. "The collaboration will not only benefit individual employees, but it will also strengthen our class discussions and expand our student network."

LASFM employees are now among the ranks of active and retired public safety personnel, including firefighters, police officers, and paramedics, who are also eligible for the tuition discount.
