All EMS Providers who are operating on Will/Grundy EMS vehicles must be members of the Will/Grundy EMS System. Providers are not allowed to function in any EMS capacity in this System without approval from the System office. Once the System entrance process is complete a provider will receive a 4-digit System Number. Also please note that an EMS provider must possess a current and valid State of Illinois EMT License in order to function in the State of Illinois. National Registry certifications alone are not sufficient.

Providers who wish to join the Will/Grundy EMS System should contact the EMS Coordinator of the Will/Grundy Agency they wish to join. That Agency EMS Coordinator will then file the appropriate System entry paperwork with the System office. Any EMS provider joining this System must successfully complete the SMO test for their level. You may use these study guides to prepare for the SMO test. There is currently no ILS SMO Study Guide.     ALS SMO Study Guide       BLS SMO Study Guide
