It’s #NationalEMSWeek! We’re celebrating the dedication of EMS professionals, especially our EDHS students, alumni & partners. This year’s theme: Honoring Our Past, Forging Our Future. Thank you for answering the call, always ready, always there. #UMBCEDHS #FutureOfEMS

Before modern EMS, the Freedom House Paramedics revolutionized EMS. In the 1960s, this all-Black ambulance crew pioneered pre-hospital care, laying the foundation for today’s paramedics—despite facing systemic barriers. This #BlackHistoryMonth, we honor their legacy.

🎉 Welcome Back, Retrievers! 🎉 The Spring 2025 semester is here, and the EDHS Department is excited to support you on your journey. Let’s tackle new challenges, stay curious, and make it a great semester together. Here’s to success in Spring 2025! 🐾 #UMBCEDHS #umbccahss

As we ring in the New Year, remember to celebrate responsibly! If your New Year’s plans involve alcohol, make sure to plan ahead with a designated driver or use a ride service. Let’s start the year safely—Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over. #NewYearsSafety #DriveSober #UMBCEDHS

We at UMBC EDHS mourn the loss of President Jimmy Carter (1924-2024), whose leadership established FEMA in 1979, transforming disaster response. His legacy of public service and compassion inspires us all. Our thoughts are with his family. #RIPJimmyCarter

Time to say goodbye to your tree? Don’t let a dry tree become a fire hazard! Safely dispose of it by checking local recycling programs, avoiding burning it in a fireplace, or turning it into mulch or compost. Stay safe and eco-friendly this holiday season! #HolidayCleanup
