       Just wanted to take a moment to share my experiences with the
       class.
       Overall, i'd recommend this class to anyone who wants to take
       the initiative to be more responsible and familiar for emergency
       care of yourself or others.
       A little more detail:
       This is a very brief course that covers the better part of the
       day. I found the material to be pretty straight forward and
       logical. I never felt the topics discussed or practiced to be
       unnecessary or unrelated to the course. I don't think this would
       be a substitute for more comprehensive EMT training, but for
       someone who's around more dangerous situations (firearms ranges,
       motorcycles, power tools, etc)... this is a great addition to
       ones toolbox. Being able to effectively use a personal IFAK was
       one of my goals for this course and I feel as though I left with
       just that.

       Mark! Thank you for sharing your experience about my course with
       everyone. Im happy to hear that you walked away with more than
       you came in, in addition to personally meeting your goals.
       * For everyones Information: EMT training is a great license to
       have! However most people don't have the 3-6 months or $1200+ to
       attain that medical license. This one day course is specifically
       designed for the lay person and the non medically trained
       person. If anyone feels a desire to seek additional medical
       knowledge and training at a higher level, I always encourage
       them down the path of the professional rescuer. Any questions
       with that let me know and I will be happy to point you in the
       right direction.
