First Responder How long is an EMC first responder certification good for?
I wanna know if I take a 2 credit EMC first responder class how long is that certification gonna last before I have to take a refresher course?
I don't know what state your in but I got an EMT certification 6 years ago in order to work in the ER more effectively but I never renewed it. It was good for 2 years but I was required to get a certain amount of continued education before they would renew it. That may have changed by now.

who is a citizen responder, and a first responder?
i don't know if i am right or not.. but i think i citizen responder is someone like on the streets who help on someone, on the skills they know.. and a first responder is someone like police or EMS who helps.. idk can someone explain it more to me thanks..
A first responder is someone like Police Officer, Sheriff's Deputy, Fire Fighter, EMT, ect.
A citizen responder is a regular citizen who helps out in some way like say they're out and about and someone collapses the citizen responder could give the victim CPR and call 911 or anything along those lines.
