History

Martin County Hospital District (MCHD) was organized in 1967 and has boundaries coterminous with Martin County, Texas. It is located in the heart of West Texas. Opened in 1949, the hospital was originally located near downtown Stanton. This facility served the community well for many years, but was replaced with a state of the art 18 bed facility in 2012. The new facility is located on I20, and has been designated as a Critical Access Hospital.

SUMMARY OF RESPONSIBILITIES

The EMT is a Healthcare Professional whose primary responsibilities involve responding to out-of-hospital emergencies. At MCHD EMS we run all Martin County 911 calls and transfers for MCHD. The EMT must remain focused on duty and committed to quality patient care. EMTs must maintain a calm professional demeanor in hostile, hazardous environments with patient care as our top priority. Once credentialed by the EMS Medical Director, the EMT functions independently, providing exceptional pre-hospital clinical medicine based on the MCHD EMS scope of care, policies, procedures, and protocols. The EMT must utilize electronic communication including portable and mobile radios, electronic patient care records, and demonstrate excellent written and verbal communication skills. Once cleared to independent duty, field Paramedics are required to take control of the scene, lead coworkers, first responders, and bystanders while managing medical and trauma patients on BLS trucks. The EMT must operate all basic EMS equipment and ensure that ambulances are stocked, clean, and ready to respond to all calls for service.
