Sorry, I wasn't clear. Years ago in the police academy they taught Advanced
First Aid, then departments kept personnel current in training and
certification. Now they teach and stay current in First Responder instead.
The need for First Responder-type skills in the field is what drove the
change.
First Responder is a good next step for SAR / MSAR folks who commonly stop
at the basic First Aid level.
