| What
is Medic First Aid Basic? |
| |
| Medic First Aid Basic
is an eight (8) hour, video based CPR/ First Aid training program
featuring instructor-supervised practices. By teaching Essential and
Secondary Skills of Patient Care, this course gives students the confidence
and ability to respond to a medical emergency. The course satisfies
OSHA requirements for industry, business, government and community.
This flexible training course may be conducted in four (4) hour or
eight (8) hour variations to suit your training requirements. |

What
Instructional Method is Used? |
| |
| Medic First Aid Basic introduced an
innovative “seeing, hearing and doing” methodology for
CPR/ First Aid training. Adults retain knowledge and skills longer
with this “hands on” technique using all the senses. We
create a low stress, confidence building, positive classroom environment,
using cooperative learning methods. Student skills are evaluated by
observation, not by a stress producing written test. With Medic First
Aid Basic, confident students become confident volunteer responders
in a medical emergency. |

What does it take to successfully complete your course? |
| |
| Successful completion of Medic First
Aid Basic means the student has demonstrated the essential skills
of patient care, understands the danger of an emergency scene and
how to perform a scene assessment, understands the use of barriers
to protect from body fluids and blood borne diseases. Students receive
a Successful Completion Card and Certificate on completion. |
| |
How
long is certification valid? |
| |

is valid for a period of two (2) years. |
| |
| Does
a successful completion card mean that I'm licensed to perform first
aid? |

first aid. Your card is only used as evidence of training. |
| |
What
sets Medic First Aid Basic students apart? |
| |
| Confidence!!! And a willingness to
respond in a medical emergency. Medic First Aid students consistently
