GREENBURGH PARAMEDIC SUPERVISOR ACCUSED OF FORGING CERTIFICATIONS, KEEPING STUDENT FEES

Westchester County District Attorney Susan Cacace and New York State Comptroller Tom DiNapoli announced today that Jared Rosenberg, Greenburgh’s paramedic supervisor, was charged with numerous felonies in relation to his alleged forgery of 22 medical certification cards and unlawful retention of certification fees. 

Rosenberg, 51, of Dobbs Ferry, was arraigned before Judge Lia Rodriguez Friday on a 45-count complaint charging him with one count each of Grand Larceny in the Third Degree, a class D felony, Scheme to Defraud in the First Degree, a class E felony, and Official Misconduct, a class A misdemeanor, and 22 counts of Criminal Possession of a Forged Instrument in the Second Degree, a class D felony, 10 counts of Falsifying Business Records in the First Degree, a class E felony, and 10 counts of Tampering with Public Records in the First Degree, a class D felony. 

The defendant was released on his own recognizance, as none of the charges are bail eligible. The case was adjourned to June 5.

DA Cacace said: “All public servants are expected to conduct themselves according to the high standards demanded by Westchester residents. As alleged, this defendant betrayed that trust, and we will seek to hold him accountable for his actions, as we do any official who disregards their duty to the public.
“I commend Comptroller DiNapoli for working with us to ferret out this alleged fraud.”

Comptroller DiNapoli said: “Jared Rosenberg allegedly scammed people seeking national CPR and First Aid certification by instead pocketing the required fee and crafting fake certification cards. He allegedly not only victimized the national organization, but EMS providers, and many other people and groups, who were led to believe they were obtaining valid credentials. I thank DA Cacace for her partnership in the investigation that led to today’s arrest.” 

As alleged in a felony complaint, the defendant, the EMT-P Paramedic Supervisor for the Town of Greenburgh, was responsible for filing certifications with the New York State Department of Health regarding regular trainings that he conducted with members of Greenburgh’s Emergency Medical Services, and others.

From on or about between May 14, 2022, and July 23, 2025, it is alleged that the defendant conducted these trainings, which were designed by the Health and Safety Institute (HSI), and instead of remitting student fees to HSI, he kept the fees for himself and forged the HSI certification cards, according to the complaint.

The losses to HSI allegedly aggregated to an amount over $3,000.

This case was investigated by the New York State Comptroller’s Office, the New York State Department of Health, and the Investigators Squad and Public and Law Enforcement Integrity Bureau within the DA’s Office. The case is being prosecuted by Public and Law Enforcement Integrity Bureau Chief Dyer Halpern.
