UPCOMING CLASSES
Public Safety First Responder Title 22 Course
The next class starts in October 2025!
Public Safety First Responder Title 22 is recognized by the State of California as the basic level of training needed by those charged with the initial response to medical emergencies. The care provided by the first medical responder is a high-quality first aid, including the administration of oxygen, CPR, automatic-defibrillation, wound management, splinting, and more. This is the first step in becoming a trained Emergency Medical Technician. First Medical Responders provide the immediate medical care needed to support the life of a sick or injured person until the arrival of the ambulance.
Financial aid is available.
