Please do NOT call County Fire Headquarters to register.
See registration details below.
Heartsaver AED
Heartsaver AED is specifically designed for persons who are
required to obtain a course certification card documenting
completion of a CPR course. In this skills-based class, you will
be trained in the new "Science of CPR" and "Relief of Foreign
Body Airway Obstruction." You'll demonstrate the proper technique and sequence of CPR for adult, child and infant.
Instruction and hands-on-training, while using an AED, will be
included for adults and children over 1 year of age after which
you will receive your two-year certification card. Each student
will receive their own personal key chain pocket mask/barrier
and will be able to practice using it on a CPR manikin. This
class does not include a BLS Healthcare Provider card.
NOTE:
Classes are for ages 13+, if there are any questions about the student's ability to work
in an adult learning environment, the parent/guardian needs
to attend the class with the student.
