Emergency Medical Services

It is a scary world we are living in right now. There are mass shootings at concerts, schools, and places of worship. At all of these events there have resulted in fatalities and/or severe injuries.

How can Houston Protection and Investigation Service aid your facility with this unfortunately strong possibility at your facility? Houston is able to teach your facilities management, staff, and/or congregants how to help their fellow members until help arrives.

This course is taught by Houston EMS Division members. Houston EMS Division is an Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) Licensed Basic Life Support (BLS) Non Transport agency. In addition to providing training, Houston EMS can also staff your event with BLS medical care including an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) that operates under the Highland Park EMS System, guidelines, and medical direction.

The Objectives to the course are:

• Use simple and effective skills to save a life
