Free 40 Hour First Aid Training!
Description
ACTIVITIES
Medical First Response Services are provided at a variety of community settings including:
public gatherings
sporting and recreational activities
disaster or civil emergencies
IMPACT
Medical First Responders (MFRs) provide lifesaving first aid and help reduce the risk of further injury or illness.
Without the assistance of our MFRs, many community-based organizations would not be able to offer first aid coverage at public events. The cost of hiring individuals or groups to provide on-site first aid coverage would be prohibitive for many smaller organizations.
