Emergency First Response £75.00
Emergency
First Response (EFR) is the fastest-growing international CPR, Automatic
External Defibrillator (AED) and First Aid training organization.
Dedicated to training the lay rescuer, EFR courses encompasses adult,
child and infant CPR skills, provides AED and First Aid training, and
feature an outstanding First Aid at Work component. The
company’s award-winning programs and state-of-the-art training materials
make it a favorite among divers around the world.
Many divers take the Emergency First Response courses to meet program
prerequisites, such as PADI Rescue Diver, or as preparation for becoming
a PADI Divemaster. However, most have also found the EFR program to be
important in every day life. They have taken a significant step in
emergency preparedness, and feel confident that they can provide care
should an emergency situation arise.
The Emergency First Response program meets requirements for CPR and
First Aid in the workplace (OSHA Guideline 29 CFR 1910.151), and
incorporates the latest procedures for emergency patient care. Other
organizations that recognize EFR as meeting their requirements are
United States Coast Guard, The Boy Scouts of America, and the American
Council on Exercise (ACE), to name a few.
