PADI EMERGENCY FIRST RESPONSE

Wednesday April 4, 2012


Emergency First Response (EFR) is PADI's CPR and First Aid course.  This course provides participants with invaluable, up to date training that every person should know.  You will receive training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), first aid and the use of an AED (automated external defibrillator).

The Emergency First Response (EFR) program consists of two core modules:

  • Primary Care (CPR)
  • Secondary Care (First Aid)

The Emergency First Response Class:

  • Includes the latest innovations in first response techniques and protocols.
  • Follows protocols from the Basic Life Support (BLS) Working Group of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR).
  • Satisfies MN-OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) CPR requirements.
  • Meets CPR requirements for persons seeking certification through the American Council on Exercise.

We offer this class at our facility or on-site at your business in the Twin Cities Metro area.  Group rates are available.
