First Responders

First Responder (EMA-FR)

“Emergency Medical Assistant First Responders” are Firefighters who have completed a 40 hour course and received certification in providing pre-hospital care for medical emergencies. Our licensed First Responders typically provide scene assessment, advanced first aid level care, CPR, automated external defibrillator (AED) usage, spinal stabilization and basic wound and fracture management until higher level licensed emergency medical personnel arrive on scene.
