and Trauma Systems Office is advertising for the second position. The job announcement is located at www.oregon.gov in the employment section. the position is titled "Public Health Educator." This position will remain open until
October 11.
Until then, the MTU-2 position is continuing to schedule training throughout the state. Many thanks
to Donna Wilson, the original mobile training unit coordinator, for her work and dedication not only to this program, but
to the rural agencies in Oregon.
Welcome!
The Mobile Training Unit (MTU) is a rural educational outreach program for ambulance
and first response agencies in Oregon. The mission of the MTU is to keep rural volunteer emergency response agencies
operational through the provision of continuing education that is mandatory for certified EMS personnel. The MTU is designed to help prevent the volunteer ambulance, economically challenged service area providers,
and first response systems from the inability to provide 911 services due to the lack of adequately trained and certified
volunteer EMTs and First Responders.
