About Us

MichiganCPRTraining.com is based in Novi, Michigan and offers its services to the entire Southeast Michigan. Our organization has professional instructors that can provide the Medic First Aid courses and the Emergency First Response courses to the general public.

We are focused on educating the lay rescuer. Our approach to training is to create an environment where people are comfortable and ready to learn. Our training builds confidence in lay rescuers and increases their willingness to respond when faced with a medical emergency by teaching them the skills they need in a non-stressful learning environment. Participants are also given as much practice as necessary to master and retain these skills. To meet these goals we utilize the full curriculum of programs from Emergency First Response.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Emergency First Response Courses

  • Q. What is Emergency First Response?
  • A. Emergency First Response is the fastest-growing international CPR, AED and First Aid training organization, with more than 31,000 instructors world-wide. Emergency First Response Participant courses include Primary Care (CPR), Secondary Care (first aid) and Care for Children courses, as well as a recommended Automated External Defibrillator (AED) component and emergency oxygen use orientation.
  • Q. Who can take an Emergency First Response provider course?
  • A. Anyone who is interested in acquiring or updating CPR and first aid skills.
  • Q. What is an AED and why would I want to learn about it?
  • A. An Automated External Defibrillators (AED) is an easy-to-use portable machine that automatically delivers a shock to a patient who is not breathing and has no heartbeat. In the hands of knowledgeable responders, AED units dramatically increase the survival rate of these patients. Because early intervention is so important for these patients, many businesses, government agencies, recreational facilities and public places are making AEDs readily available for properly trained personnel.
  • Q. What is the recommended AED training component?
  • A. The recommended AED component gives participants practical experience in AED use. Ask your instructor about including this training in your course.
  • Q. How long are the Emergency First Response courses?
  • A. It varies depending on how your course is conducted. For example, it might be as short as three to four hours for both Primary and Secondary Care courses, if your course incorporates independent study. If the Primary and Secondary Care courses do not incorporate independent study, they could take from five to eight hours. Since the course is performance-based, other factors, such as the number of participants, whether recommended skills are included, the number of mannequins available and how quickly participants master the skills practice sessions will also determine course length. Visit this website's Course Lengths page for course-specific time information.
