Who invented emt?

Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) as a formal profession evolved in the 1960s, primarily in the United States, with significant contributions from various individuals and organizations. One key figure was Dr. J. Edward McCoy, who developed the first EMT training program in 1966, influenced by the need for better pre-hospital care. The establishment of the first ambulance services and the development of training programs laid the groundwork for what would become the EMT profession.
