What is First Responder (EMC 100)?
First Responder, similar to Advanced First Aid, is an entry-level course designed for individuals (law enforcement officers, firefighters, security guards, lifeguards, camp counselors, back-country guides, etc.) that are “first responders” to medical emergencies. This 53-hour course (meets one time per week for 3 hours) combines lecture material with skills/scenario practice, and provides students with the knowledge and skills necessary to handle medical emergencies during the first few minutes prior to EMTs and Paramedics arriving.
