Southeastern Pennsylvania! We are now scheduling for our 2024 Summer Camp Series of one or 1.5 hour Mini-Classes for kids ages 6 through 16.

Classes are fun and age appropriately tailored to age group, not one size fits all.

Four options to choose from:

EMERGENCY AWARENESS:
PME’s Emergency Awareness Mini-Class is designed for elementary aged students and is an introduction into Emergency Medical Services (EMS) from an active EMT and EMS Educator and the 911 Communications System from a former 911 Dispatcher. How and why they would call 911, and invaluable tips from experience if faced with a real-life emergency. Never scary, only fun – students will leave their mini-class with a newfound confidence and personal preparedness.
Mini-Class ends with a Q&A Session
$120 60-minute class / $180 90-minute class
Minimum Participants – 3
Maximum – Dependent on location/space

OUR BIG BODY SYSTEMS:
(One of my favorite subjects to instruct with EMT Students and review with my tutoring student EMT Candidates has always been Anatomy & Physiology! – Amanda) PME’s Our Big Body Systems Mini-Class is where elementary aged students are given an exciting introduction into specific topics about the human body. We discuss cool facts about our bones, some organs (brain, heart, lungs, skin), and two of our major body systems – our cardiovascular and respiratory systems, with hands-on activities that will have them moving and learning.

Review: “When we were putting together our summer karate program a few years ago, First Aid training was one of our top priorities. PME worked with us to build a schedule of events for the day that centered around the various skills we wanted for the students to ensure we had the best possible program. When the time came for the class itself PME’s founder Amanda assisted the whole day, taking time to build relationships with the students prior to the lesson itself. As for the lesson, Amanda presented the information in an easy to understand and follow method, giving the students ample time for questions and sidebars. Amanda demonstrated the value of her immense EMT experience, fielding questions with ease, grace and humor that captivated, entertained and educated the diverse group of young minds that were present. Aside from the First Aid knowledge and skills we had planned for, Amanda expanded on the scope of the class to include additional points of which young children should be aware. Of particular interest was teaching them how to make a 911 call in an emergency situation. Prior to this, it wasn’t a skill that would normally make the list of activities that would be planned for a camp like this. But after that small session, I can’t imagine holding any future First Aid / Safety training for young students without including it.” – Chris DiToro, NHK
