Training Programs
Our Training Philosophy
First Aid response training does not have to be dry or boring. Code Eight EMS programs are practical, down-to0earth, realistic, and, fun for the instructor and student.
We believe in student participation rather than lecturing, PowerPoints, and videos. Sure, there must be a certain amount of lecture time to communicate basic concepts. However, the simple fact is that first aid is hands-on rather than theoretical.
Our goal is to prepare people without any previous medical training, to provide basic emergency care until professionals take over. We stress the practical aspects of rendering aid to the sick and injured.
How can we accomplish these goals? We set up realistic scenarios in our Standard First Aid Response training program, using theatrical injuries and blood to simulate a real emergency scene. These scenarios are especially meaningful when the course is conducted in the workplace. The student responds to scenarios in their work environment.
A significant bonus to this method is identifying hazards during training and contributing to an Emergency Medical Response Plan.,
