LifeStar and 911 e-Learning Solutions are proud to offer an intensive, 6 week hybrid EMT bootcamp. This course is perfect for college students attending colleges in and around the Winston Salem area. You can complete the course over the summer and potentially have an opportunity for employment immediately following class!
How It Works:
At the beginning of each week you will be given your weekly assignments. You can complete these assignments ANYTIME and ANYWHERE. You DO NOT have to be online at a scheduled time.
Assignments will consist of:
Reading chapters from the book
Completing online interactive content (not boring powerpoint lectures)
Watching short videos on how to perform skills
Taking comprehensive online tests
At the end of each week, you will meet in Winston Salem at LifeStar Emergency Services for two days of intense hands-on skills training and practice. At the end of the second day, you will take the comprehensive section exam(s) for each section you have been studying and practicing.

You will be expected to perform a full assessment, including vital signs and SAMPLE history on a minimum of 10 patients. By the end of week 6 you will have met your clinical requirements and be ready for your finals.
