This is a Medical First Responder (MFR), also known as an Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) Held in Cadillac Michigan. Both the National Registry of EMTs and the State of Michigan recognize the Medical First Responder (MFR) as an important part of the prehospital care system. Often, MFRs, operating through their local fire and rescue departments, are the first providers on scene of an emergency involving a serious medical patient or a patient who has suffered a traumatic injury. The early care provided by MFRs can be essential in saving lives or in limiting the degree to which such an event affects the patient’s life. The MFR class offered by the Agape Healthcare Schools at its Cadillac site is sanctioned by the State of Michigan. The class involves 70 hours of instruction. Students who complete the requirements for this class will be cleared to take the National Registry of EMTs MFR exam. After passing this exam, they can submit their results and be certified to work as MFRs in the State of Michigan. Schedule for classes are a couple evenings a week and some Saturdays to make training available for students with full or work schedules.
