Be it pledged as an Emergency Medical Technician, I will honor the Physical and Judicial
Laws of God and Man. I will follow that regimen which, according to my ability and
judgment, I consider for the benefit of patients and abstain from whatever is deleterious
and mischievous. Nor shall I suggest any such counsel. Into whatever homes I enter, I
will go into them for the benefit of only the sick and injured, never revealing what I
see or hear in the lives of men
unless required by law.
I shall also share my medical knowledge with those who may benefit from what I have
learned. I will serve unselfishly and continuously in order to help make a better world
for all man kind.
While I continue to keep this oath in violated, may it be granted to me to enjoy life,
and the practice of the art, respected by all men. In all times should I trespass or
violate this oath, may the reverse by my lot.
...So Help Me God.
Adopted by The National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians in 1978
