Advanced EMT Initial

The Asynchronous Advanced is the next certification level above EMT Basic. This program prepares the candidate to provide more advance level care to victims of trauma and airway compromise as well as providing the student with more in-depth patient assessment skills. Skills taught in this program include IV therapy, basic ECG recognition, IO administration and medication administration.

South Carolina State certification will be awarded, by the Department of Public Health, to those graduates who successfully complete the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians computer-based written examination, which is the exit/certification examination for all South Carolina initial EMT, AEMT and NRP courses.
