This course includes lecture as well as hands on training. As part of this training, the student must complete a competency based written and skills examination.
As of July 1, 2017, changes to Title 22 Div.9 Chapter 2 Emergency Medical Technician has resulted in changes to the EMT Scope of Practice for all California Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs). This revision includes new knowledge and skills, some of which are required, and others that are Optional Skills that a Local EMS Agency (LEMSA) may establish for local accreditation.
Starting 7/1/2019, an EMT renewing his or her certification shall submit documentation of successful completion of the following training by an approved EMT training program or approved CE provider:
An Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) is trained and certified in basic life support practices and is certified by the LEMSAs or an approved public safety agency (Certifying Entity). California law requires all ambulance attendants to be trained and certified to the EMT level and many fire agencies require firefighters to be EMT certified. EMTs are often used as the first dispatched medical responder in an emergency medical system. There are more than 60,000 EMTs certified in California.
Currently, Safety Unlimited instructors are only authorized for classroom delivery of this training. Classroom training is offered both through open-enrollment or by employers hosting their own on-site training.
