CPR/Basic Life Support

This course teaches students how to recognize the need for one and two-person cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for adults, children, and infants.

Students must safely perform CPR and use an Automated External Defibrillator (AED). This course is for anyone. If you are a current healthcare professional, you can also consider Basic Life Support for Healthcare Workers (AHA).

Students will be able to:

  • Recognize cardiac vascular emergencies and/or respiratory arrest and take appropriate action.
  • Establish an airway and initiate ventilation.
  • Manage obstructed airway in adult, child and infant.
  • Perform one and two-person adult, child and infant CPR using universal precautions.
  • Demonstrate the use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED).

Employee registration is coordinated by the Program Manager supporting your training. Depending on the course, employees may register in person, through an organization-provided roster, or via a self-registration link. Your Program Manager will guide you through the best option for your specific training.
