The most popular NIPSTA training program each year makes another return on June 4th at the Des Plaines Campus of Oakton Community College. The Trauma/EMS Symposium addresses issues related to the continuum of care for the injured/ill person. Among the training topics in 2012:
- The Future of EMS in Region X

More than 200 persons will experience an information-packed agenda and an opportunity to network with peers and vendors. Continental breakfast and lunch service is included as well.
