Emergency Medical Responder

---

Ideally suited for workplace responders in high-risk environments, EMR participants will develop a strong understanding of the human body in health, illness or injury. Candidates will develop the skills necessary to assess patients, make critical decisions about care, access emergency services and package a patient for transport–thereby minimizing the time required for EMS services to be on-scene.

In some Canadian provinces, an Emergency Medical Responder may be employed by ambulance services.
