Impact EMS Training offers a great educational opportunity that will aid in your goal of obtaining a Nationally Registered (NREMT) Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) certification.
Upon successful completion of this EMT course, a student will be authorized to take the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) practical skills and cognitive examinations.
After passing your examinations, you will be awarded an NREMT EMT Certification. Most states use these certification exams as a basis for state licensure or certification. They are also widely accepted for the reciprocity process for most states.
Our unique online emergency medical technician course will give you the skills to stabilize, treat, and safely transport patients. Learn to perform the critical interventions and skills necessary as a new EMT.
Covers the foundational knowledge and skills essential for EMS professionals. It includes understanding EMS systems, ensuring workplace safety and wellness, mastering patient lifting and movement techniques, addressing medical, legal, and ethical issues, honing communication and documentation skills, and gaining a solid grasp of human anatomy and physiology.
Teaches the critical skills needed to perform thorough and systematic patient assessments in emergency situations. Topics include primary and secondary assessment techniques, vital sign monitoring, history taking, and the ability to identify and prioritize patient needs. Students will develop the expertise to make rapid, informed decisions to provide timely and effective medical care.
The airway section is dedicated to mastering the techniques and skills necessary for effective airway management in emergency situations.

We will explore the principles of pharmacology, focusing on the use of medications in emergency medical care. Students will gain an understanding of drug classifications, administration routes, dosage calculations, and the effects of various medications on the human body. This knowledge is crucial for safe and effective medication administration in emergency situations.
Shock and resuscitation focuses on two critical aspects of emergency care—shock and basic life support (BLS) resuscitation. Students will learn to recognize, assess, and manage shock in various medical scenarios. Additionally, they will develop the essential skills for providing BLS resuscitation, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) techniques, to revive and stabilize patients in cardiac arrest or respiratory distress.
This comprehensive medical section covers a wide range of medical emergencies, including respiratory, cardiovascular, neurologic, gastrointestinal, urologic, endocrine, hematologic, allergic reactions, toxicology, behavioral health, and gynecologic emergencies. Students will gain the knowledge and skills needed to assess, diagnose, and provide appropriate care for patients experiencing a diverse array of medical conditions.

Here we delve into unique patient care scenarios, including obstetrics and neonatal care, pediatric emergencies, geriatric emergencies, and caring for patients with special challenges. Students will gain the expertise needed to provide specialized and compassionate care to individuals across the lifespan, from expectant mothers and newborns to children, older adults, and those with unique medical needs.
Emergency response and management aspects include EMS operations, transport operations, vehicle extrication, special rescue techniques, incident management, and terrorism response. Students will acquire the skills necessary to effectively coordinate and respond to emergencies, from everyday situations to large-scale disasters and acts of terrorism, ensuring public safety and efficient incident management.

The course’s entire educational (didactic) portion, including psychomotor skills, must be completed within six (6) months.
We ask that you make a good-faith effort to complete your ride-a-longs to observe EMS calls and patient interactions. We provide you with liability insurance to complete those observations with an ambulance agency, hospital, or fire department.
We understand that many agencies may not allow observation for various reasons. Therefore, we may simulate these during psychomotor skills sessions near the conclusion of your course.

Easily the best, most comprehensive training I've received anywhere in the world. Learned so much in a short space of time, but also gained the confidence to use it. Still, use some of the instructor's ways of explaining some techniques to help new medics.
The online resources were extremely well organized and helpful for self-motivated learners. Quizzes at the end of each chapter helped designate your areas of weakness. The on-site clinical week was an awesome experience. The environment was extremely friendly and relaxing. Lessons were full of information and led by experts in the field who clearly demonstrated all clinical skills and were very approachable to questions. The on-site week made the hands-on portion of the exam easy. Thank you, Ryan Asher and the rest of the guys!
This was a great program. I took the online EMT course and passed the August Skills Week for the first time. I passed the EMT National Registry written test a few days after returning from Skills Week. The program requires hard work and dedication, (as it should given the subject matter), but I would highly recommend it. I learned much more than those taking the EMT course offered by the county where I am a volunteer firefighter. Many people I know are struggling with the National Registry exam, but I felt very well prepared. The instructors were great and the facilities at Post Falls were very good. The food, atmosphere, and friends I made were all terrific. I plan to take EMT refreshers and additional training through this company.
Just finished the EMT-B course, very well organized, plenty of resources. The skills week was great and all the guys that helped made sure we were prepared for certification. Big thank you to all of you.
I completed the EMT-B course in August 2015. The program was exactly what I needed with the online knowledge-based course and the intensive skills week for hands-on practical training. They provided us with many resources including audiobooks, physical textbooks and workbooks, online lectures, and continuous support and communication. As a volunteer, I had to juggle the time I devoted to my regular job with EMT training options. This was the best choice for me. I felt extremely prepared for the practical exam (administered on the final day of our skills week class) and for the computer-based knowledge exam that I took two weeks after the course. For someone that can handle the online learning environment, I would highly recommend this program. The instructors are great and go out of their way for their students.
