Emergency Medical Responders provide immediate lifesaving care to critical patients who access the emergency medical services system. EMRs have the necessary knowledge and skills to provide immediate lifesaving interventions while waiting for additional EMS resources to arrive.They are employed by large companies, corporations, manufacturers, and other industries for onsite Emergency Medical Services.The EMR licensure training extends beyond First Aid and CPR certification but is the least intense training and scope of practice compares to EMT, Advanced EMT or Paramedic.
