Just wanted to take a moment to share my experiences with the class.
Overall, i'd recommend this class to anyone who wants to take the initiative to be more responsible and familiar for emergency care of yourself or others.
A little more detail:
This is a very brief course that covers the better part of the day. I found the material to be pretty straight forward and logical. I never felt the topics discussed or practiced to be unnecessary or unrelated to the course. I don't think this would be a substitute for more comprehensive EMT training, but for someone who's around more dangerous situations (firearms ranges, motorcycles, power tools, etc)... this is a great addition to ones toolbox. Being able to effectively use a personal IFAK was one of my goals for this course and I feel as though I left with just that.
Spent Brass:
Mark! Thank you for sharing your experience about my course with everyone. Im happy to hear that you walked away with more than you came in, in addition to personally meeting your goals.
* For everyones Information: EMT training is a great license to have! However most people don't have the 3-6 months or $1200+ to attain that medical license. This one day course is specifically designed for the lay person and the non medically trained person. If anyone feels a desire to seek additional medical knowledge and training at a higher level, I always encourage them down the path of the professional rescuer. Any questions with that let me know and I will be happy to point you in the right direction.
