Course Description
NJ EMT’s must successfully complete both a 24-hour EMT Refresher program broken into three 8-hour blocks (A, B, and C) and 24 elective CEU credits as well as maintain current BLS CPR certification.

The goal of this course is to review common skills employed by EMTs while responding to 911 calls for emergency medical assistance, such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or bandaging a wound. Additionally, participants will employ patient assessment skills to determine the best course of treatment.
