The presented MOU outlines the field intern training requested by Arizona Western College for students enrolled in EMS classes or the Fire Academy. Each curriculum requires an amount of field intern training or “ride-along” experience, appropriate to their level of training and criteria of the training program.
The City of San Luis agrees to provide qualified preceptors to supervise the student with the on-vehicle experience, at no charge to AWC. To provide performance-based feedback to the AWC program director, coordinator or instructor. SLFD will also provide the training program coordinator with any criteria, conditions or stipulations which will limit or direct the student’s “ride-along” experience.
AWC will provide liability insurance coverage, with stipulations stated in Article VIII.2, in the name of the City of San Luis. The SLFD will assume all responsibility for scheduling and compliance with HIPAA laws and requirements.
The SLFD will be requesting authority to become associated with and provide the field intern training and experience for AWC EMS students and Fire Academy Cadets.
