Paramedic Base Station

In partnership with Long Beach Memorial, Miller Children’s participates as a paramedic base station hospital. Miller Children’s is one of the only free-standing children’s hospitals in Los Angeles and
Orange Counties to serve as a paramedic base.

Paramedic base hospitals allow emergency physicians and mobile intensive care nurses to communicate with paramedics via radio, to assess patients before they arrive in the emergency department 24/7.
More than 1,000 paramedic calls are handled each month by both hospitals.

Continuing education, quality improvement programs and specialized paramedic training programs are provided for all paramedic units that are assigned to them.
