With a passion for helping others and commitment to safety and customer service, AidFirst began educating others in April 2001. Owner and Primary Instructor, Jeff Vollandt, brings over 13 years of experience as a Professional Firefighter to your classroom. In working for a large city in King County, Jeff has been exposed to a wide range of emergency situations. Jeff's teaching credentials come from the American Heart Association and the American Red Cross. Currently, Jeff is certified to teach Heartsaver First Aid, adult, child, and infant CPR, AED, Healthcare Provider CPR & AED, as well as CPR for the Professional Rescuer. Utilizing his knowledge and experience, Jeff delivers a unique class that is fun, as well as, informative. To assist with large classes or to teach classes simultaneously, AidFirst has additional Professional Firefighters and Paramedics to accommodate your needs.
When selected to provide your training, expect to receive a relaxed, informative class that will emphasize job specific type emergencies. Having a class that is specifically tailored to your own environment will have a lasting impact and an immediate awareness of potential situations. Our class consists of lecture using powerpoint, hands on manipulative skills, and scenarios to enhance the day's learning. AidFirst uses training aids that will give students the actual feel of seeing a real person with realistic injuries. Our own "Chester Burns" also has the ability to alert the student when skills of correct ventilation, hand placement, and compression depth are being performed correctly. At the end of the training, students will be certified and will receive a certification of skills from the American Heart Association or American Red Cross. This certification will satisfy your Washington State Labor and Industries requirement.
AidFirst is available to you day or night, any day of the week. We pride ourselves on delivering exceptional service with exceptional instructors and equipment. Please contact us so that we may accommodate your safety needs.
