Who is Boston College EMS?

We are here to serve you – the Boston College community

Our Mission

Boston College EMS is a student-run, all-volunteer, quick-response emergency medical care provider founded in 1997. We serve both members of the Boston College community and guests to the Boston College campus. We operate 7 days a week and provide coverage of campus events through strategically placed foot teams, as well as campus-wide coverage with our Class V non-transporting ambulance. In addition to our role as a care provider, Boston College EMS has a commitment to advancing medical education and promoting health and safety among EMTs and students alike through lectures and classes.
