About National EMS Museum

Since the closing of the To the Rescue Museum in Roanoke, Virginia, EMS professionals and the public have preserved the history and innovations of EMS in private collections around the country. EMS stations, retired professionals and their families have worked hard to keep artifacts, documents, photographs, and other historical material in the hopes that one day another museum dedicated to the Emergency Medical Services and rescue professionals would develop. At the dawn of the 21st century, EMS professionals from around the United States discovered their common desire to create a cohesive national repository to house their profession’s history and share it with future generations. In June 2006 a small group of EMS providers posed a question to those in the EMS community: What if we develop a national museum? Today the National EMS Museum is embarking on an campaign to learn where we can make the largest impact with our traveling and pop-up exhibitions. We have a number of projects volunteers and students can get involved with, from researching and writing to cataloging and exhibition development. We are dependent on our Members and Sponsor to support our operations. Contact our Board or Director of Development to discuss how you can help.
