Drexel University EMS is a volunteer student organization that provides emergency medical care to Drexel University's Main Campus and the immediate community in University City, Philadelphia. Drexel EMS is certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Health as Quick Response Service (QRS), rendering emergent, stabilizing aid from when you call for EMS to when Philadelphia Fire Department arrives. We do not currently provide emergency transport services; however, we offer the same level of care as any Philadelphia Fire Department Basic Life Support (BLS) unit. We receive advice from the Department of Public Safety and medical direction from Drexel University College of Medicine. Drexel EMS works closely with the Drexel Police Department and the Department of Public Safety to provide the best pre-hospital care possible.
