Project Description
CPR/AED & First Aid Training
ASHI Certification: 2 Years
American Heart Association: 2 Years
American Red Cross: 2 Years
Description: This program helps to develop basic CPR, AED and First Aid knowledge, skills, and the confidence needed to respond when a serious incident occurs. CPR, AED, and Basic First Aid combination training is an excellent choice for both the community and workplace setting, and is consistent with recommendations of the National First Aid Science Advisory Board and OSHA’s best practices for first aid training programs in the workplace.
In addition to the fact that everyone should have these potentially life-saving skills, certain individuals may require or desire CPR, AED, and first aid knowledge and skills as part of their profession, thankfully MyCPR NOW is able to help with that. These individuals include; emergency response teams in business and industry, school bus drivers, adult residential care personnel, child care workers, teachers, parents, and babysitters.
