Middlebury Regional EMS will be offering a Vermont EMS First Responder (VEFR) class on October 28th and 29th. The VEFR is designed to introduce individuals to EMS and provide basic first response capability to their community. It is built for the fire service, law enforcement, security services, and other agencies of public safety to provide initial care to the ill or injured.
Vermont EMS First Responder Description:
For the Vermont EMS First Responder (VEFR) certification, the scope of practice is based upon the American Heart Association Heartsaver First Aid / CPR & AED course.
