Mission Statement
Trek Medics International is a 501(c)3-registered nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering underserved communities with the training, skills and equipment necessary to provide life-sustaining emergency medical response in the prehospital setting. Our services are available to all, regardless of race, religion or class.
Implementation
Using core curriculum based on training guidelines set forth by the International Red Cross, American Heart Association and other international medical organizations, Trek Medics International aspires to promote basic life support (BLS) education in order to help communities effectively respond to life-threatening emergencies, and alleviate the societal and economic costs associated with preventable injury and death.
Through simple classroom education and basic, hands-on training, communities and other groups that partner with Trek Medics will be better equipped to handle life-threatening emergencies when immediate medical attention is not available.
Likewise, when available, Trek Medics International seeks to provide lifesaving, EMS equipment to qualifying entities in order to afford their communities the same access to prehospital emergency medical care that many other countries currently benefit from.
Our Focus
Trek Medics International was founded specifically to help develop the prehospital emergency medical response capabilities of both formal EMS systems and related community groups in underserved countries. Since we have determined that our focus will remain on prehospital emergency medical response, it is important to emphasize that we only involve ourselves in clinical-based health care insofar as it relates to our Mission. Therefore, in order to avoid any misperceptions, we would like to make it clear that we do not provide medicines or hospital equipment, and do not offer any clinical training that is otherwise unrelated to prehospital emergency care.
