EMT Course
We have always tried to be at the forefront of training and equipment and in first aid that is no different.
Following on from an Emergency First Responder program set up by Shane Knox of the National Ambulance Service College, we undertook an Emergency Medical Technician Course and sent 6 members on it along with one member of Tralee Fire and Rescue Service and one from Limerick SAR. All 8 successfully passed and were placed on the EMT register. Since this two more unit members have become EMTs.
The course was done with the Irish Ambulance Training Institute in Galway who we still work with today delivering courses in the rescue centre through them with all funds raised going to BSCR.
