Health & Safety Institute (HSI), a leader in Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) software, training and compliance services, today announced it has acquired EMS Safety Services Inc., a growing provider of first aid and CPR training.
Both EMS Safety and HSI’s ASHI/MEDIC First Aid brands are well known for a wide range of high-quality, competitively priced emergency care (EC) training content that is flexible and easy to use. The acquisition significantly increases HSI’s presence in the EC market, further reinforcing HSI as a leading provider of first aid and CPR training.
“The addition of an innovative, growing company like EMS Safety to the HSI family of companies continues to reinforce our mission of delivering solutions that make the workplace and community safer,” says Chad Birckelbaw, chief executive officer of HSI. “EMS Safety has built a solid reputation as an innovative creator of high-quality EC content that is flexible and easy-to-use, and we are excited about joining together to expand our offerings to our customers.”
Marian Lepore, chief executive officer of EMS Safety Services, said, “EMS Safety is a natural fit with the HSI family of companies, including its ASHI and MEDIC First Aid training brands. Not only will our content and training programs further expand HSI’s extensive library of courses, the solutions offered through the HSI Platform, Vivid Learning Systems, Summit Training Source and SafeTec Compliance Systems brand solutions will provide a great opportunity to simplify customers’ safety and compliance footprint.”
Since being acquired by the Riverside Company in 2015, HSI has continued to invest in strategic acquisitions that further its vision of making workplaces and communities safer as a recognized leader in the Health, Safety and Environmental industry.
