Amends law related to EMT eligibility for receiving funds from "Emergency Medical Technician Training Fund."
This bill updates New Jersey law to clarify how the Emergency Medical Technician Training Fund reimburses agencies that train volunteer EMTs. It specifically defines "volunteer" as those who do not receive an hourly wage or salary for their services, while explicitly excluding full-time hospital employees from this definition. The legislation also broadens the definition of higher education to include out-of-state universities and sets a minimum service requirement of 12 calls or 150 hours annually for the first three years of certification. Additionally, it establishes rules for recovering training funds if a volunteer stops meeting service requirements, except when they leave to attend college.
