ITLS Chapter: Indiana

Occupation: Paramedic/Firefighter/Lieutenant

(1) Describe prior involvement with your ITLS Chapter(s): As a paramedic student, I first

took the BTLS course in 1999. Enjoying the course format, I became an instructor for

BTLS in 2002. After serving as an instructor for 12 years, in 2014 I was asked to help

increase the awareness of the ITLS program within my home state of Indiana. To help

accomplish this, I was nominated for and became the state coordinator, a role in

which I continue to serve.

(2) Describe your prior involvement with ITLS International (committees, teaching etc.):

While I have instructed ITLS locally for a number of years, I first began my

international involvement in 2014 when I started serving on the ITLS Chapter/TC

Support Committee Meeting teams. As part of this team, I have helped to review

numerous international ITLS policy and procedure manuals, including some from

Canada and England as well as various US states. I have also been serving on the

Page 3: Aaron Jeanette, EMTP, PI - ITLS...ITLS Board of Directors Candidate Materials Aaron Jeanette, EMTP, PI ITLS Indiana Chapter

Conference Committee beginning in 2016 and have enjoyed working to help develop a

quality offering for ITLS members.

(3) What volunteer or leadership activities have you been involved with? Over the

years, I have volunteered in a variety of capacities including helping at local animal

shelters and volunteering to coach my children’s football, soccer, and baseball teams for a

number of years. My other passion in volunteer work is getting to serve at the Hoosier

Burn Camp, a program that helps children who have endured significant, life altering

burns. This camp provides them with a chance to be around other children with similar

experiences and to feel accepted. This camp also serves their families. At Hoosier Burn

camp I have helped organize events and also served as a camp counselor. As for

leadership opportunities, I have spent significant time serving the Indianapolis

Professional Firefighters Union from 2009-2013 as a trustee, and then as their president

from 2014-2016. Now that my term as president is complete, I continue to serve as a

trustee and assist the current president as necessary. In addition to this, I serve as a

Lieutenant at my fire department as well as a backup battalion chief. I also work for a

large teaching hospital and serve on committees focusing on leading the acute coronary

syndrome and stroke programs. I also work with the leadership team to develop protocols

for EMS agencies throughout the state of Indiana. Finally, I have the opportunity to help

this facility develop and implement instructional material for the local EMS community.

(4) Describe any previous or current experiences on other Boards: My primary Board

experience has been with the Indianapolis Professional Firefighters Union. During my

service there I served 2 years as a member of the executive board. This board helped

organize fundraisers, develop outreach opportunities, managed contracts, and networked

with local politicians.

(5) Can you regularly attend Board meetings? Yes

Regular meeting conflicts? As long as I have approximately a month’s notice, I usually

can travel without any problems, resolving any conflicts in scheduling.

(6) How many hours per month, in addition to Board meetings, could you

contribute? In addition to the Board meetings, I am willing to commit to 25 additional

hours per month.

(7) Why are you interested in serving on the ITLS Board? When I think about serving

on the ITLS board, I find myself interested for a few reasons. First, I am distinctly aware of

the profound impact that ITLS has had on my career as a paramedic. When I first took

ITLS, I was in awe of the instructors and their life experience and passion for sharing their

knowledge with students. With each ITLS course that I teach, I still reflect on this passion

and work to bring that same enthusiasm to my students. I feel that serving on the ITLS

board will help this passion to continue to grow and will help me give back to a program

that has meant so much to me.

Secondly, I think that I bring a useful skill set that can benefit ITLS. One of the biggest

skills that I feel that I can offer is on the technological side. As we are all aware,

technology is a large part of our lives now and this is not just limited to one country or age

group. By working on the Board, I hope to be able to help ITLS continue to improve its

online platform in order to provide more opportunity for student learning and to ensure

that our products are relevant and accessible, especially for the younger paramedics that

we serve.

Finally, I would enjoy the opportunity to serve on the ITLS Board to help continue to

develop methods for fostering growth in our students and instructors. As I have trained

Page 5: Aaron Jeanette, EMTP, PI - ITLS...ITLS Board of Directors Candidate Materials Aaron Jeanette, EMTP, PI ITLS Indiana Chapter

and worked alongside multiple instructors over the years, I have noticed a continual need

for continued growth and development. Our instructors need to feel supported and

confident in both new trauma practices and appropriate teaching methods. I think that

there is a huge opportunity for this education as we move into more case based teaching

formats.

(8) What is your understanding of the mission of ITLS? I believe that the mission of ITLS is to

provide preeminent education for medical providers working with trauma patients,

particularly in the pre-hospital environment. This education should be factual and match

current research and should provide students of ITLS with the skills and confidence to

provide lifesaving care for the severely injured trauma patient.

(9) What would you hope to accomplish as a member of the ITLS Board? As a member of

the ITLS Board, I would hope to bring a fresh enthusiasm and viewpoint to the team. I feel

that I have valuable hands on experience to offer the Board. I have served, and continue

to serve, as a Paramedic for the last 17 years. During my time as a medic, I have worked

in both urban and rural settings as well as an emergency department. I have also served

as a Paramedic Instructor and have extensive experience teaching both novice and

experienced professionals in classroom, simulation, and street settings. In addition to this

experience, I also feel that I can offer a fresh approach to technology and advancing the

ITLS program. I have some background in computer coding and website design and have

worked diligently over the last two years to design impactful online education for the EMS

community. This experience will benefit the Board as I am familiar with the possible

directions for growth and can help to identify specific needs and gaps in the current

offerings. Overall, I hope to have the privilege to work alongside the other Board members

and to grow in my practice personally and professionally. I hope to bring an enthusiasm

for teaching and help to continue to develop ITLS into a program that is beneficial and

highly desired for students.

diligently with not only the Board of Directors; but also the Editorial Board, Communications,

Global Development, Chapter & Training Support, Nominating and Conference Planning

Committee.

I have been working extremely hard to ensure that ITLS not only remains the Gold Standard of

trauma training; but that our courses and client base around the globe continues to increase. In

the past three years I have worked alongside a very dedicated team of individuals in each and

Page 24: Aaron Jeanette, EMTP, PI - ITLS...ITLS Board of Directors Candidate Materials Aaron Jeanette, EMTP, PI ITLS Indiana Chapter

every committee and truly hope to remain on these committees as a board member to further all

of the hard work.

I also remain abreast and current with ITLS by coordinating and instructing ITLS courses around

the globe in a multitude of languages both on a paid and volunteer basis.

(3) What volunteer or leadership activities have you been involved with?

When I am not working on the various ITLS related projects listed below; I volunteer in Ottawa

for St John Ambulance with International program development in third world countries; teach

Navy League of Canada.

(4) Describe any previous or current experiences on other Boards:

I have been the Co-Chair of the Conference planning committee for two years

I have been the chair of the Communications committee

The chair of the Military ITLS working group

The chair of the new Law Enforcement First Aid working group

I have assisted and volunteered by expertise, time and experience on a multitude of ITLS

programs and working groups. (exam review, new instructor, ITLS basic, etc)

I have volunteered by time and experience to assist with global development and have been

working with the Government of Jamaica, the Government of St Kitts-Nevis, the province of

side that most are not fully aware of or know the ins and outs of. My master’s in Business

Administration with Specialty in Health Care Management and Disaster management can be an

added asset to the organization. I also feel that I am able to blend many of my Federal duties

and leverage further alliances with various groups and Government organizations in a positive

and beneficial manner.

International Government organizations, and further the ITLS name brand around the globe.

As a global non-profit organization; we are dedicated to preventing death and disability from

trauma through our educational programs and trauma instruction. We are the gold standard in

pre-hospital care and our Trauma Algorithm; which is based on the principles of crew resource

management saves lives. Our mission is to expand the brand in such a way as to not water down

the instruction and save lives, pure and simple. We expand by being globally focused and

allowing chapters to adjust/tweak the program in such a manner as to include local and national

differences; incorporated into our training. These differences are what makes us leaders in the

industry.

(9) What would you hope to accomplish as a member of the ITLS Board?

My hope is to continue working with all members of ITLS family to bring our organization and

programs to the forefront. I am hoping to continue working on making the annual

conference an all-inclusive multi approached conference that sees attendance by not only

medical professionals; but also law enforcement, fire, leadership and first responders

from around the globe. I hope to assist in creating new and exciting training materials

and tools that folks can easily access and refer to and to work on creating multiyear

business and contingency plans. I am hoping that my Military and Government

background will also assist us in attracting more International Military and Government

organizations.
