KEMSA Membership levels

KEMSA was formed in 1996 after members from several EMS factions decided to unite to have a single voice for EMS in Kansas. This voice is heard not only locally and at the state level, but at the national level as well.  KEMSA is a non-profit organization dedicated to the improvement of EMS in Kansas. KEMSA has members throughout Kansas and in surrounding states at every level of EMS.

The Kansas EMS Association theme is “Unity is Strength,” through which its members strive to improve the level of pre-hospital care services delivered to Kansas residents and visitors.

KEMSA currently offers multiple types of membership as described below.  To learn more about benefits of each level, view a complete list of benefits here.
