EMAT Members Practicing First Aid
Our Program:
The first aid team is comprised of motivated and self-directed student leaders who have a range of experience in providing first aid. Our mission is to increase awareness among students on the UBC-Vancouver campus on a wide range of health and wellness issues in order to further UBC’s Place and Promise commitment of “increasing support for student health and well-being”. EMAT strives to accomplish this mission through effective community outreach initiatives and a dedicated team of first aid responders.
What We Do:
- Provide first aid services for on campus events
- Engage students by offering first aid awareness, educational outreach, and harm reduction campaigns
- Participate in campus-wide disaster management plan and offer disaster preparedness awareness for the UBC community
