Every day, someone’s life changes in an instant. A crash. A heart attack. A desperate call for help. And in those critical moments, trained heroes rise. They don’t hesitate. They act. They save lives. 

At Orlando Medical Institute (OMI), we don’t just teach emergency medicine—we shape warriors in scrubs. Leaders under pressure. Calm in the storm. Our mission is to transform passion into purpose, and purpose into power. 

Whether you’re beginning your journey, seeking to master advanced life-saving skills, or aiming to lead in the field, OMI offers three bold paths: 

Emergency Medical Technician (EMT), Paramedic, and the Associate of Science in Emergency Medical Services (EMS). 

Why Choose a Career in Emergency Medical Services? 

Because someone has to be first. First on the scene. First to stop the bleeding. First to bring hope. EMS professionals don’t just work in emergencies—they are the reason someone survives them. 

This isn’t just a career. It’s a calling. For those who run toward the danger. For those who choose strength, grit, and courage—every single day. 

If you’ve ever felt that fire inside to protect, serve, and make a difference when it matters most, EMS is where that fire becomes impact. 

 EMT Program: Your First Step to the Front Lines 

In just 16 weeks, our Emergency Medical Technician program prepares you to enter the field and respond with confidence. Learn to: 

  • Assess patients 
  • Perform CPR and administer oxygen 
  • Provide basic life support 
  • Operate as part of an emergency response team 

This program lays the foundation. It’s where heroes take their first step. 

Paramedic Program: Command the Chaos 

When seconds matter, paramedics lead. OMI’s Paramedic Program is built to mold you into a medical professional capable of making life-saving decisions under pressure. 

Your training includes: 

  • 420 hours of classroom learning 
  • 150 hours of lab time 
  • 540 hours of real-world, hands-on clinical and field experience 
  • 1,110 total hours that forge strength, skill, and leadership 

You’ll learn advanced airway management, cardiac life support, trauma care, medication administration, and more—guided by instructors who’ve lived it. 

This is not easy. It’s not supposed to be. But it will be worth it. 

Associate Degree in EMS: Lead the Future 

If you’re already a certified paramedic, take your career even further with our Associate of Science in EMS—delivered 100% online. 

This degree prepares you for leadership roles in EMS systems, public health, or healthcare administration. You’ll sharpen your understanding of medical ethics, resource management, and system operations—stepping into roles where your voice shapes policy, teams, and outcomes. 

This is the next level—for those ready to lead. 

Advance Your Skills with Continuing Education

Our training isn’t about textbooks alone—it’s about courage, resilience, and stepping up when the world needs you most. Our students graduate not only prepared for the field, but changed by the journey. Stronger. Bolder. Unshakable. 

This is your moment.
