Syracuse University Ambulance is a collegiate EMS agency that responds to medical emergencies across the Syracuse University campus and surrounding area.

As a fully student run BLS agency, our members have the opportunity to progress through a range of roles such as Driver, Crew Chief, Dispatcher, and Trainers. SUA is a training organization meaning many of our members join with little to no prior medical experience and obtain their certifications through our organization.

In a time of crisis, knowing where to turn can be difficult, so it is important to know what resources are available. Save these phone numbers so you know who to contact if you ever need help. by @suambulance

Today, more than 100 people—including members of SUA and the SU community—came together to remember and honor the 343 FDNY firefighters who sacrificed their lives while saving others during the September 11th attacks.

We are deeply grateful for the courage and service of first responders today and every day.

This Memorial Stair Climb was organized by our Vice President, Chris Henderson Jr., in collaboration with the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation. Chris devoted countless hours to ensuring that each fallen hero was recognized and honored, helping us carry forward the promise to never forget their sacrifices.

Thank you to everyone who participated or donated, and a special thank you to Chris for all his hard work and dedication. by @suambulance

When joining SUA, new members are matched with a mentor who helps navigate training and get acclimated to the organization. Swipe to hear firsthand experiences from some of our active members about their experiences as both mentors and new members!

From Emily: Having been a co-mentor the semester prior, I was a little nervous to mentor on my own for the first time. The most rewarding part of mentoring Deven was seeing her learn and grow during her probationary phase and become an active member of SUA. My all time favorite moment with Deven was working a shift with her for the first time and seeing her apply everything we worked on for the previous 6 weeks!

From Deven: Joining SUA was way out of my comfort zone. I was intimidated at first, but when I met Emily, I instantly knew I was with the right people. Emily created a fun learning environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. She quickly went from my mentor to my friend, and I could not be prouder that she is now a Field Supervisor. From my training with her, I can say with confidence that our organization is extremely lucky to have her as a leader. I am forever grateful for Emily’s guidance and our CTB dates.

From Isabelle: I joined SUA in the spring of 2024, and stepping into the mentor role has easily been one of the most meaningful experiences I have had in this organization. Being able to support Jocelyn alongside my other mentees has been incredible, especially watching her build confidence, find her rhythm on shift, and truly excel in the agency. Mentorship doesn’t stop once the probationary phase ends; it creates lasting support, and through it all, Jocelyn has truly become one of my best friends. Seeing her work hard, find her place, and thrive here is the absolute best part of being a mentor.

From Jocelyn: I joined the organization the spring of my freshman year and at the time, did not know just how lucky I was to have Isabelle as my mentor. Over the past three years, she has become not only my role model, but also one of my best friends. When I first joined, I had little confidence in myself and worried about balancing SUA with school, but she showed me that it w by @suambulance

Our incredible Manager of EMS, Paul Smyth, has been selected for the Mental Health Fellowship with the New York State Department of Health. This is a huge accomplishment, but for those of us who have the privilege of working with Paul, this recognition comes as no surprise.

“To all of us, Paul is far more than our EMS manager: he is a father figure, mentor, and guiding resource who helps us learn, grow, and lead every day. Seeing him selected for this NYS Mental Health Fellowship is a testament to the care and dedication he shows all of us at SUA. We are incredibly proud to learn from him and celebrate this well deserved recognition!” -Members of SUA
