I'll wager a good bunch of guys on here have gone thru the EMT training, passed their test, and may or may not still be EMT certified!
I had a Uncle pass out, from a heart attack we found out later, dad and i didn't know nothing so we loaded him in the truck and headed hell bent for town. As guessed, he passed away before we made the hospital and that very day, i made a point of at least getting Basic First Aid certified and soon did.
Couple few years later i had the opportunity to take the classes to become a EMT. I did and though there were lots of classes and it was one of the hardest tests i ever took, i passed the State Test first go around. One of the best things i ever did!!! Though i'm no longer certified, i learned TONS of stuff, have helped in several bad accidents as first responder, and feel my training, might ,could, would, save someone's life if and whenever it's needed...even maybe my own.
How many Basic first aid grads or EMT grads do we have amongst us?
