EMT Program Orientation Day

EMT Class is a stressful, fast-paced course that requires both cognitive and psychomotor skills working together. Our process prepares you to achieve the best outcome for the citizen that activates the Emergency Medical System (EMS), thus requesting the services provided by EMT’s, Paramedics, and Hospital staff. We train each EMT to be competent enough to not only meet the minimum skills and knowledge required to pass the course and certification exams, but also instill competence and confidence to treat their own families, friends, and community when needed. We will help you develop critical thinking skills needed for this environment.

Because we recognize the commitment by both the student and their family members during this course, we invite both student and family members to attend the EMT Class Orientation on August 26th at 6:00 pm. This is not mandatory for family to attend but we highly encourage it so we can answer any questions they may have prior to the class start date. We believe that if all expectations are understood and agreed upon by both students and their family; family stressors are reduced and/or eliminated increasing class participation, skill and knowledge retention, and successful completion of the course.
