Students learn via scenario-based methods that simulate real-life injuries and illnesses. Successful completion of these courses provides certification from the National Association of Search and Rescue, as well as certification in Basic Life Support CPR from the American Heart Association. University Communications photographer Douglas Levere documented the final practical at Don Miller Park in North Tonawanda.
