BASIC LIFE SUPPORT CPR

This class is required for EMS, lifeguards, physical therapists, nurses, and doctors, and is the most in-depth CPR class offered. This class includes the AHA course manual and a 2-year certification card. The use of a Bag Mask, advanced airway techniques, and concentration on 2 and multi rescuer CPR are some of the additional features of this class.

It also features comprehensive hands-on practice sessions with an Automated External Defibrillator (AED), for adult, child, and infant CPR and choking issues.

Each student works on their own manikin to maximize hands-on time. AHA e-learning options are also available for any BLS student.

  • 6.5 hours scheduled
  • Individual rate – $95
  • Group rate (class of 6) – $585

 

E-LEARNING

Basic Life Support CPR, Heartsaver CPR AED, and the combined Heartsaver CPR AED along with First Aid courses are now available as e-learning courses from the American Heart Association. Beware of bogus sites that pretend to supply you with online certifications. These will not be accepted in places that require original certification.

The AHA blended e-learning differs from others; you are actually taking the course via the AHA website, and then coming to our location to practice and test your practical skills. As an AHA training instructor, we provide you with the key code access to this website where you learn all the cognitive elements of your CPR course in your own time frame. That is part 1 of the process. The key code to access the AHA site will be emailed to you upon your registration for the course.

Parts 2 and 3 are approximately a 2.5 hour session with us where you practice on a manikin (part 2) and then test out (part 3). The e-learning process requires you to come in prepared for parts 2 and 3 to take the skills test in the allotted time. You will be issued your certification upon completion of the skills session.

  • BLS Course is paid to AHA. BLS Check off – $65
  • E-learning modules will be available to the student for 24 months after the issuance of a certificate
  • Those looking to renew their BLS can do so in one of two ways. You can either do the full BLS (Basic Life Support) course or the blended learning which comprises Part 1 online and then Parts 2 and 3 in the classroom with an instructor.

 

BASIC LIFE SUPPORT INSTRUCTOR COURSE

This course is designed to prepare the instructor candidate to teach all AHA BLS courses from family and friends CPR through BLS.

Upon completion of the AHA instructor course, the instructor candidate must be observed teaching a class by faculty from the training center with which they’ll eventually affiliate. It is important to know with which training center you’ll affiliate prior to the course.

Upon completion, all candidates must affiliate with an AHA training center and follow all AHA instructor protocols.

  • BLS Instructor course – $325
  • Course completed online and in person

 

HEARTSAVER CPR AED

This class is for those who want to know about CPR, choking, and the AED. This class is great for those outside of the medical profession, or those in the medical profession that don’t require the BLS provider level class. Police, fire, teachers, personal trainers, home-care aids, and the general public are well served with the Heartsaver AED class.

  • 5 hours scheduled online or in-person
  • Individual rate – $75
  • Group rate (class of 6) – $360 plus travel
  • Group courses can be at your location
  • The course includes AHA course manual and a 2-year certification card

 

BASIC FIRST AID

This course is of great help to a layperson or a healthcare provider. It is highly recommended for any Heartsaver CPR AED or BLS student to add this course to their regimen.

Upon completion, you’ll receive your first aid certification which is good for two years.

  • 4 hours scheduled
  • Individual rate – $60
  • Group rate (class of 6) – $300 plus travel
  • Group courses can be at your location
  • Includes course manual

The combined Heartsaver CPR AED / first aid course is a combination of the elements of individual Heartsaver CPR AED and basic first aid classes. Upon completion, you’ll be certified for two years in First Aid and CPR AED.

 

FAMILY AND FRIENDS CPR

This course covers adult, child, and infant CPR, along with how to handle choking situations for adults, children, and infants. AEDs will be discussed, but not practiced, as they’re in the Heartsaver AED certified courses. This class will completely enable you to have full understanding and capability to conduct CPR for adult, children, and infants, as well as how to handle choking incidents. This course is great for those that just want a basic CPR class that does not include the hands on use of a defibrillator or for those who do not have a requirement to be certified. Young teens involved with babysitting are well-suited for this class.

  • 3.5 hours scheduled
  • Individual rate – $40
  • Includes course manual
  • The certificate is given upon completion of the course

The American Heart Association strongly promotes knowledge and proficiency in BLS, ACLS, and PALS, and has developed instructional materials for this purpose.

Use of these materials in an educational course does not represent course sponsorship by the American Heart Association. Any fees charged for such a course, except for a portion of fees needed for AHA course materials; do not represent income to the AHA.

 

HEARTSAVER FOR K12 SCHOOL
