Emergency First Response
Why Emergency First Response?
|
Emergency First Response (EFR) is the fastest-growing international CPR, Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) and First Aid training organization. Dedicated to training the lay rescuer, Emergency First Response courses include:
· Emergency First Response Primary Care (CPR)
· Emergency First Response Secondary Care (First Aid) |
 |
When these courses are put together, they provide you with an extensive instruction in CPR and First Aid. As an option, the Automated External Defibrillator (AED) and Emergency Oxygen is recommended.
The Emergency First Response Courses feature an outstanding First Aid at Work component. The company’s award-winning programs and state-of-the-art training materials make it a favorite among divers around the world.
|
Many divers take the Emergency First Response courses to meet program prerequisites, such as PADI Rescue Diver, or as preparation for becoming a PADI Divemaster. However, most have also found the EFR program to be important in every day life. They have taken a significant step in emergency preparedness, and feel confident that they can provide care should an emergency situation arise.
|
The Emergency First Response program meets requirements for CPR and First Aid in the workplace and incorporates the latest procedures for emergency patient care. Other organizations that recognize EFR as meeting their requirements are United States Coast Guard, The Boy Scouts of America, and the American Council on Exercise (ACE), to name a few.
