Paramedic Program and Intermediate

Why should I choose Aims for my paramedic education?
At Aims Community College we offer our paramedic students top notch
instruction, clinical experiences and state of the art simulation
labs. Much of our paramedic curriculum is taught by physicians
as well as experienced paramedics working in the field. Our clinical
sites are second to none. Students rotate through major hospitals,
ambulance services and fire departments in Northern Colorado
and the Denver Metro area. We have the latest computerized Simulation
technology with Sim-Man and Sim-Baby as well as plenty of up
to date equipment and experienced lab instructors.
Our students are able to train in our Virtual Hospital that includes
an OR, ICU, Ambulance, ED, and more. Each sim lab is equipped with
video equipment to replay student performance via the web.
We offer both a Paramedic Program, RN to Paramedic
