Medic One history
Medic One company history timeline
The Seattle visionaries who founded the Medic One program in the late 1960’s believed that bringing an advanced life support system right into the home of a heart attack victim could improve the chances of survival with early pre-hospital intervention.
In late 1969, the first class of 15 Seattle Fire Department personnel began a training course, designed specifically to provide pre-hospital treatment of patients with cardiac complaints.
Doctor Leonard A. Cobb along with then Seattle Fire Chief Gordon Vickery founded Seattle Medic One in 1969.
In 1972, the Seattle City Council declined to pick up funding for the program.
In 1975, the Medic One Program physically expanded to include the training of paramedics from other emergency care provider groups within King County.
In 1977, the first paramedics came to work in King County.
