Learn to respond to medical emergencies in this Active Shooter Incident – Immediate Responder First Aid Certification Course
Twenty-three percent of people experiencing a traumatic medical emergency die before first responders arrive because no one on the scene was trained in first aid. This online Immediate Responder First Aid Course will train you to respond to medical emergencies while EMS is on the way.
This Active Shooter Incident - Immediate Responder First Aid Certification Course

In active shooter incidents, there is a silent response gap – the time between the occurrence of the event and the arrival of professional first responders. During this critical period, those injured can deteriorate and can die before first responders arrive. In the United States, the average response time for EMS is approximately seven minutes in the city and fifteen minutes outside the city. In active shooter incidents, the response time for EMS to treat patients may be up to two hours. This Active Shooter Incident – Immediate Responder First Aid Certification Course will prepare you to be someone’s hero.

We need Immediate Responders – people like you who are at the scene and will step into the Silent Response Gap to provide first aid while waiting on EMS to arrive.

You can be this Immediate Responder and someone’s hero. In this online course, you will learn to identify and manage life-threatening injuries occurring during accidents, a disaster, an active shooter event, or a bombing.

Be Prepared for the Ultimate Test

Our training philosophy is based on self-efficacy. That is, instilling in you the competence and confidence to provide first aid in a medical emergency and continue to provide care until the patient is handed off to medical professionals.

Unlike legacy first aid courses, you will not be trained just to pass a test at the end of the course. As a student at the School of First Aid, you will be trained for the ultimate test – when you are the only thing standing between the patient and the grave.

In a study of students attending legacy first aid courses, it was found that just four months after graduating, no members of the study group were able to successfully pass a complete skills assessment. Legacy first aid courses do not provide you with the knowledge retention resources to help you remember what you learned. The School of First Aid provides you with over a half dozen resources that you can use to stay fresh and current after you complete the course.

Money-Back Guarantee

If you are not happy with the Active Shooter Incident – Immediate Responder First Aid Certification Course for any reason, I will gladly refund your money within thirty days of purchasing the course.
