Breath for Life Inc offers the National Red Cross Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) Program which educates you to an EMR’s scope of practice. This course is primarily for Fire Fighters and Law Enforcement personnel who do not require registration with the Alberta College of Paramedics. Breath for Life has been offering the EMR program since 2007. Breath for Life provides a supportive learning environment to help build confidence. Students will become familiar with their scope of practice through assessment and treatment protocols. A consideration of various medical illnesses and traumatic injuries will ensure that sign and symptom recognition prompts correct treatment decisions.
This course is approved by the Canadian Red Cross, and accepted by Private and Public schools as a prerequisite into their EMS programs. Breath for Life is no longer affiliated with the Alberta College of Paramedics and this course does not qualify you for registration with the College.
