This real-world-focused session introduces engaging, goal-driven approaches for integrating resilience, balance, and long-term career sustainability into EMS education from the very first day of training. Instead of outdated wellness slogans, we'll explore practical, realistic strategies that fit the challenges today's students and educators face in both initial and continuing education. Participants will leave with fresh, immediately usable tools to help build healthier, happier EMS professionals who want to stay in this career for the long haul. This CE activity is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Pre-Hospital Continuing Education (CAPCE) for 1 Educator CEH.
