The VEFR is designed to introduce individuals to EMS and provide basic first response capability to their community.  It is built for the fire service, law enforcement, security services, and other agencies of public safety to provide initial care to the ill or injured.

For the Vermont EMS First Responder (VEFR) certification, the scope of practice is based upon the American Heart Association Heartsaver First Aid / CPR & AED course.   The primary focus of the Vermont EMS First Responder is to initiate immediate lifesaving care for critical patients.

This training will equip you with the basic knowledge and skills necessary to provide lifesaving interventions while awaiting additional EMS response and to assist higher-level personnel at the scene and during transport.

Vermont EMS First Responders function as part of a comprehensive EMS response.
