Through lesson presentations and hands-on skill stations, participants will learn how to access help in the event of a life-threatening emergency and what to do until more qualified EMS arrives.
This course covers activating the 911 system, CPR and AED, responding to life-threatening bleeding, penetrating trauma, moving patients to safety, positioning injured patients, airway, respiratory & ventilation, cardiovascular emergencies, individual patient assessment, ethics, operations, and communications.
The Rural Community EMS program courses will meet the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) requirements for continuing education credits.
Program completion will qualify participants to take the Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) exam, through National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT), which is a national certification for individuals providing immediate life-saving care.
Passing the EMR exam allows individuals to work as first responders in various settings, including assisting EMTs and Paramedics.
