Edmonds College provides students with courses in Contemporary Health Education and Emergency Response with CPR and AED. The Health Education curriculum is designed to guide students toward the exploration of personal health issues and demonstrate the ability to analyze, discuss, and empathize with others who have diverse or like beliefs.

Through the Emergency Response program, students will acquire the competence and confidence to access and evaluate the trauma scene, provide a primary and secondary assessment for a trauma victim, and initiate proper care for the injures.
