By electronically submitting this application, I acknowledge that PCC may be required to provide some of my student information to the Oregon Health Authority, EMS & Trauma Section, in order to process my Paramedic Course application. Additionally, I understand that some of my student information is necessary to be provided to NREMT and certain professional and clinical sites (hospitals, ambulance agencies, et. al.) for eligibility regarding required clinical components and national testing processes (e.g., criminal background check initiation and results, drug screen results, attendance information and, potentially, information about passing classes). I hereby give my consent to release information as needed.
