The individual nominated by the agency/hospital must dedicate his/her complete service to the needs of a rural community within the Central Arizona Region.
*There will be approximately 10 scholarships awarded to representatives of rural agencies/hospitals. A scholarship covers one registration fee to attend the 2013 EMS Odyssey Conference. The scholarship recipient is responsible for all other costs associated with traveling to and attending the conference including meals, hotel sleeping rooms, hotel incidental and amenity charges, mileage, etc.,.
