Save A Life: Restart The Heart

Adult, Child, & Infant CPR/AED

$29.99

More than 350,000 cardiac arrests occur outside of the hospital each year and the survival rate is just 10%. This course is designed to change those odds.

Early intervention with effective CPR and defibrillation has proven to dramatically increase the chance of survival. With EMS 7-14 minutes away, your immediate intervention may be the difference between life or death.

COURSE DETAILS

This course will provide a 2 year certification in adult, child, and infant CPR/AED. This is an in-person course where you will perform the skills on training aids and experience the effort and techniques required for successful performance of CPR and use of an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED). We believe in providing quality in-person training that will serve you well should you come across a breathing or cardiac emergency and need to fall back on this knowledge and training when seconds count, therefore we do not offer this training in an online format.

Persons who suffer cardiac arrest have the best chance of survival when a bystander takes immediate actions with CPR and early defibrillation within 5 minutes of their arrest. With this knowledge you will be the provider of that "best chance"!

In this course, you will learn:

How to recognize cardiac arrest
Where to find and how to check for a pulse
Steps to provide effective chest compressions
How to open airway and provide rescue breaths
Where to find and how to use an AED
Similarities and differences between adult, child, and infants
How to prepare for EMS arrival

Maryland's Good Samaritan Law protects bystanders who render first aid in a reasonably prudent manner at an emergency scene without the expectation of a fee or other compensation. You must also relinquish care to a certified first responder on their arrival.
