Outreach / Education
Our Community Education section is a very busy group. This group of in-house instructors teaches an array of courses to over 2000 students/year. We are an American Safety and Health Institute (ASHI) Training Center, National Association of EMT (NAEMT) Training Center and also teach other provider and community courses. This group is also responsible for over 110 AEDs that have been placed throughout the community at government buildings and high traffic areas where Community members might need assistance. They provide inspections, maintenance, data retrieval and training at each facility with an installed AED.
