| About
Emergency First Response Corp | Creating Confidence
to Care |
| Emergency
First Response is the fastest-growing international
CPR, AED and first aid training organization. With
more than 26,000 instructors worldwide, Emergency
First Response is backed by 36 years of experience
in the development and delivery of instructional
courses, training materials and educational curricula.
Emergency First Response courses have gained widespread
international acceptance.
Emergency First Response's course curricula
are based on patient care standards as published
in the American Heart Association Guidelines
2000 Standards for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
and Emergency Cardiovascular Care, and the consensus
view of the Basic Life Support (BLS) Working
Group of the International Liaison Committee
on Resuscitation (ILCOR). ILCOR is an international
standards group representing most of the world's
major resuscitation organizations.
Focused on training the lay rescuer, the Emergency
First Response approach to training builds confidence
in lay rescuers and increases their willingness
to respond when faced with a medical emergency
by teaching them the skills they need in a non-stressful
learning environment. Participants are also given
as much practice as necessary to master and retain
these skills. |
