Innovation is our standard
Always innovative, MEDIC FIRST AID continues to redefine CPR/first aid emergency care training. We’ve recently introduced a host of workplace training and education programs, and a bold, market-defining set of AED implementation services. These programs and services reflect our 30-year commitment to making learning emergency care as easy and comfortable as possible.
MEDIC FIRST AID’s reputation as an industry leader is the product of dedication, hard work, and a pioneering spirit. The result has been a long list of significant industry firsts, some of which we share below. At MEDIC FIRST AID, we’re committed to training others to be prepared to help those in need.
- First course to combine CPR and first aid training into a single training day, setting an industry standard for national training organizations
- First course to eliminate written testing for laypersons learning first aid, leading to reduced student anxiety and an increased likelihood of student response to an emergency
- First to offer training curricula featuring short video segments followed by instructor demonstration and student practice, now recognized as the preferred skills training method in the industry
- First course to teach layperson first aid using an EMS approach to patient care, advocating a "continuity of care" as an ill or injured person is passed from first aid provider to health care provider
- First to offer a lay responder training program on the use of an AED, realizing the necesssity of these essential providers
- First emergency care program developer to produce device-specific AED training program videos, giving students the chance to learn using the same devices they have purchased
