From the text of the announcement:

Wayne State University School of Medicine and the Detroit Medical Center Department of Emergency Medicine is currently recruiting for our one-year ACGME accredited EMS fellowship, resulting in EMS subspecialty board eligibility.

 

Now is an exciting time to pursue an EMS career, given the recent recognition of EMS by the American Board of Medical Specialties as a unique subspecialty. Our EMS fellows receive mentorship, didactics, and hands-on experience that covers the breadth of clinical, operational, and administrative core content of the specialty of EMS. Our program has graduated three fellows, all of whom now serve in EMS, public service, and academic leadership roles. We aim to prepare the trainee to pass the EMS Board Exam when it becomes available and to assume a leadership role. We offer diverse experiences to provide the practical knowledge to be successful in all areas of prehospital medicine and disaster preparedness.

 

Resources include the City of Detroit Fire Department, Detroit East Medical Control Authority, State of Michigan EMS committees, Wayne County Sheriff, and all EM departmental resources. This is a dynamic time in Detroit – the city, as many of you know, is transforming.  EMS has grown substantially. There are dozens of new units, fire first responders for the first time in history, and the city has adopted state of the art call-taking and emergency medical dispatch. With this is a very effective EMS medical record and data system to support research projects.

 

EMS fellows receive a PGY-4 salary from the Detroit Medical Center with full benefits.  Clinical shifts are paid hourly as an employee of Medical Center Emergency Services, EM practice plan for the Detroit Medical Center.

 

Interested applicants should submit a letter of intent/personal statement highlighting their interest in EMS and three letters of recommendation to the Fellowship Director below. For more information, please visit our website athttp://emergencymed.med.wayne.edu/ems.php
