Courses for EMTs
EMT-B / AEMT
The Emergency Medical Technician courses are designed to teach individuals the basics of the Emergency Medical Services profession. Once accepted, the student will learn; the foundations of being an EMT, anatomy and physiology, roles/responsibilities, medical and trauma responses, patient assessments, airway management, proper lifting techniques, documentation, communication and post transport debrief. In addition, the Advanced Emergency Medical Technician course provides an individual with limited advanced skills allowing them to expand their scope of practice while caring for patients in the pre-hospital setting.
EMS Evaluator Workshop
The purpose of evaluator workshops is to teach methods and techniques to enable individuals to provide fair, reliable, objective practical skills evaluations while properly using evaluation skill forms identified by the Department of Health.
Successful completion of an EMS Evaluator workshop is required in order to function as an evaluator. EMS Evaluators must be certified at or above the certification level of the individual being evaluated.

Frequently Asked Questions

The HIV/AIDS exam may be taken twice.
Which CPR course should a “first responder” or “professional rescuer” take?
First responders or professional rescuers generally include fire, police, and emergency medical personnel. These types of prehospital professionals usually need to complete a BLS course. The AHA now offers a BLS course specifically for prehospital providers, BLS for Prehospital Providers.
Are your courses OSHA compliant?
Our Heartsaver Courses are for anyone with limited or no medical training who needs a course completion card for job, regulatory, or other requirements. While these courses are designed to meet OSHA requirements, OSHA does not review or approve any courses for compliance.
Through the AHA/OSHA Alliance, we work with OSHA to raise awareness about workplace safety and health to prevent injuries, illnesses, and fatalities in the workplace. Read about the OSHA/AHA Alliance.
