SERVICE OVERVIEW

When Seconds Count, Confidence Saves Lives

Security threats are only one category of emergency your organization may face. Medical crises, a cardiac arrest during Shabbat services, a severe allergic reaction at a JCC event, an injury at summer camp happen without warning and demand an immediate, capable response.
 

JEPP's CPR, First Aid & Staff Readiness program equips every member of your team with the training and certification they need to act in those first critical minutes before emergency services arrive. We go beyond a standard certification class, building the knowledge, practice, and psychological readiness that make training stick.
 

Every program is tailored to your organization's size, environment, and existing medical response infrastructure, ensuring your team leaves prepared for the specific scenarios most likely to occur in your setting.

CPR & AED Certification

Hands-on CPR training and AED use so your staff can respond to cardiac emergencies immediately.

First Aid & Wound Care

Comprehensive first aid skills covering bleeding control, fractures, burns, and more.

Stop the Bleed Training

Surfaces gaps in written procedures before they become problems during a real emergency.

Custom Readiness Assessment

An evaluation of your current first aid resources, AED placement, and staff coverage gaps.

Recertification & Refreshers

Ongoing renewal sessions to keep certifications current and skills sharp across your full team.

TESTIMONIALS

Trusted by the leaders we serve.

Hear from the rabbis, executives, and educators who've partnered with JEPP to strengthen their communities.

“What I appreciate most about JEPP is their expertise combined with their methodology. They make it easy to partner with them and actually affect change. They didn’t come in telling us to start over or replace everything we had already built. Instead, they took the time to understand our school, our building, our existing processes, and the work we had already done, and then helped us make it better and stronger. JEPP’s assessment gave us clear, practical recommendations, and over time their support expanded into grant writing and security planning. With their help, we have been able to meaningfully improve the security footprint of our school. Their approach is thoughtful, respectful, and collaborative, and we are very grateful for the impact they have had.”
