EMT Performance Courses
EMTP (Emergency Medical Technician Performance) Level 1/ Remediation for EMT’s (4 or 8 Hour Course)
The EMTP course was specifically designed for EMT’s who have to be prepared to deal with the physical demands of their profession. Many EMT’s are suffering from or will suffer from unnecessary pain, due to muscular and structural imbalances. This affects their ability to efficiently perform on the job tasks and eventually can lead to debilitating injuries during the performance of their duties and everyday tasks. This course will give those attending a better understanding of the injuries most commonly suffered in the emergency service profession, how to prevent the imbalances which can cause them, and minimize the risk of injury occurrence and/or re-occurrence, through PKCO drills/exercises taught in the course. The emphasis is on ‘quality of life’ and restoring the ability to physically perform at a high level. PKCO’s remedial courses are some of the most popular courses offered and usually have an immediate impact on the practitioners who attended this course.
EMTP Level 2/ Advanced Remediation for EMT’s (4 or 8 Hour Course)
The FFP Level 2 course was specifically designed for EMT’s who have previously attended the EMTP Level 1 Course. Many EMT’s are suffering from or will suffer from unnecessary pain, due to muscular and structural imbalances. This affects their ability to efficiently perform on-the-job tasks and eventually can lead to debilitating injuries during the performance of their duties and everyday tasks. The EMTP Level 2 Course builds off of the foundational principles taught in the EMTP Level 1 Course and provides EMT’s with advanced strategies to reduce structural imbalances and minimize the risk of injury occurrence and/or re-occurrence. Advanced drills and exercises to remediate these common structural imbalances will be taught.
In addition to introducing advanced drills to address the muscular and structural imbalances common to emergency service professionals, the EMTP Level 2 course also addresses movement. The muscular and structural imbalances common to EMT’s inhibits
their ability to move efficiently and safely. Remediating these imbalances prepares emergency service personnel to be able to learn ‘how to move’. The EMTP Level 2 course introduces the concepts of ‘moving efficiently’ using drills and exercises to help safely perform all job related functions that require movement. Being able to move efficiently and safely will help reduce and/or minimize injuries on emergency calls or performing strenuous service drills.
