Emergency Medical Responder Program
Program Overview
EMR Program
The Emergency Medical Responder program was designed as the entry level
ambulance program for the ambulance profession. By March 1, 1997, all
practitioners on the ambulances in the province must be registered EMR (or
equivalent) as a minimum.
The EMR program is offered in a number of delivery methods, with the most
popular being over a period of 17 weeks. The program runs one weeknight a week
for the 15 weeks, as well as two or three weekend sessions for practical application of
the new skills. The course includes all required texts and student manuals as
well as a CPR update and includes skills such as bandaging and splinting, airway
management, automated external defibrillation and spinal immobilization. The EMR
Program from Professional Medical Associates also includes a driving program
using the high-fidelity driving simulator.
The
program is designed as an entry level program to work in the ambulance
profession and includes information on documentation, ambulance driving and
roles and responsibilities. Graduates of the Professional Medical Associates'
programs are eligible to complete the Provincial Registration Examination and
become registered as Emergency Medical Responders with the Alberta College of
Paramedics and eligible to work in the province of Alberta.
