Emergency Medical Technician (EMT)

About the Program

Emergency medical technicians (EMTs) are essential first responders, providing on-site medical care in critical situations. An EMT is responsible for stabilizing patients on the way to a hospital — a job that requires extensive training.

Lifework Education offers a 4-week EMT Boot Camp and a slower-paced 10-week EMT course, which equip students with essential knowledge and skills as healthcare providers. The curriculum includes anatomy and physiology, CPR, splinting, bandaging, and patient assessment training.
