The Emergency First Response Team (EFRT) is a volunteer organization, on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week during the school year. We respond to any medical emergency on campus in teams of three in 2-3 minutes. Our responders are certified as Canadian Red Cross Emergency Medical Responders with our 2nd year members having completing the International Trauma Life Support course, and some senior members with Advanced Medical Life Support. While EFRT responders have extensive training and operate with advanced first aid equipment, we are not a replacement for an ambulance and will request one if required. Upon arrival, EFRT will coordinate with Hamilton EMS to provide the best possible medical care.
