Web Site Quality Assurance
As many of you already have noticed, MEDIC FIRST AID is asking Facilitators to input their registry number when purchasing student packs online. This measure has been implemented as part of MEDIC FIRST AID's continuous quality control program, designed to ensure the best products and services in the emergency care industry. As always, your information remains completely private and secure. Thanks for all of the positive feedback regarding these efforts. Please continue to email your Web site feedback to feedback@medicfirstaid.com. MEDIC FIRST AID counts on its clients in the ongoing mission to provide a comfortable online experience.
Major Recognition for MEDIC FIRST AID
The National Academies of Emergency Dispatch (NAED), a non-profit member organization of more than 33,000 members representing over 3,000 Dispatch Centers worldwide, has officially recognized MEDIC FIRST AID Training Programs. Beginning in June, NAED brochures will reflect the change to their brochure language, and will also include MEDIC FIRST AID in their list of approved training program providers.
MEDIC FIRST AID also was recently added to the New York State Department of Health Bureau of Emergency Services list of educational material approved to meet CPR requirements for CFR and EMT/AEMT original and refresher courses. MEDIC FIRST AID extends its appreciation to Zane Cofield of Emergency Response Trainers, a Gold Training Center in Rome, NY, for his pivotal role and considerable effort in helping gain this approval.
MEDIC Health & Safety™ Logo Among Industry Best
MEDIC FIRST AID received more recognition recently, but this time it was for one of the Print Department's new logos.
The MEDIC Health & Safety logo was recognized by The Communicator Awards with an Award of Distinction in the Design/Logo category, from a field of over 85 entries in the Print Media competition. Congratulations to Bruce Schaefer, print coordinator/graphic designer at MEDIC FIRST AID, whose talent and vision continue to impress.
The Communicator Awards is an international competition that recognizes outstanding work in the communications field. Entries are judged by industry professionals who look for companies and individuals whose talent exceeds a high standard of excellence and whose work serves as a benchmark for the industry.
