| Medical Explorer Post 2025 |
North Star Critical Care sponsors a Medical Explorer's Post affiliated with the Boy Scouts of America and the Buckeye Council.
The advisors and committee for the post are employees or managers of North Star Critical Care. The purpose of the Post is to provide career insight for youth of Columbiana County who may be considering a career in any of the Public Safety Field or Medical Fields. These may be a future career in E.M.S., Fire Fighting, Nursing, Physician or a related field.
Explorers are taught C.P.R. and First Aid, and are provided basic training in HIPPA and OSHA required subjects. Then, after satisfactorily completing these required trainings the Explorer is permitted to ride along with EMS crews.
