Summary

The bill adds a new section to Michigan’s public health code that lets individuals who are 17 years old apply for a medical first responder or emergency medical technician (EMT) license, provided a parent or guardian signs the application. Applicants who are 18 or older can seek higher EMS licenses such as paramedic or instructor‑coordinator. The change only becomes effective if companion Bill HB 5488 is also enacted.
