First Responder Initial Course
The 40-hour First Responder Initial Course represents the first
component of the EMS system. The first responder is trained to provide
care for the sick or injured victims prior to the arrival of an ambulance. The
first responder is trained to assess and manage medical emergencies.
Successful completion of the course includes attendance, national standard
practical skills testing, and a written exam. Participants will also be trained in
Professional Rescuer CPR. Upon completion of the course, the participant’s
information will be submitted to the Mn EMSRB for certification. Each
participant is required to register and complete an on-line disclosure
statement that is available on the Mn EMSRB website to complete the
registration process. The Mn EMSRB is responsible for the issuance of the
