Welcome to the National EMS Museum

The National EMS Museum is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving and sharing the history, innovation, and legacy of emergency medical services. As the only museum of its kind in the United States, we honor the men and women who have shaped this vital profession and inspire future generations through engaging exhibits, programs, and resources that showcase over 300 years of EMS history.

Through our vast online digital library, traveling exhibitions, and community events, we connect the past, present, and future of EMS. Supported by donors, volunteers, and partners, we strive to ensure the stories and legacies of EMS are preserved and celebrated for years to come. Join us and be part of shaping a stronger, brighter future for EMS.
