Fairfield County EMS Named Peds Ready EMS

Fairfield County EMS has been recognized by the SC Department of Health and Environmental Control’s (SCDHEC) EMS for Children (EMS-C) program as a South Carolina Pediatric Ready EMS service. 

The SCDHEC EMS-C Peds Ready program recognizes EMS services within the state who have demonstrated a commitment to excellence in pediatric emergency care and better healthcare outcomes for pediatric patients. Peds Ready EMS services are EMS agencies that have exceeded the standards in training, equipment, and policies to be better equipped to handle pediatric emergencies. 

“We are proud to be recognized as one of the few EMS agencies in South Carolina as Peds Ready.” Says Daniel Sloan, Fairfield County EMS Director. “Fairfield County EMS strives to better ourselves for the benefit of our patients, and this recognition shows our work in being able to provide the best care for our pediatric patients.”

Fairfield County EMS is one of only 10 EMS services within the state of South Carolina to receive this ­­recognition.
