Heartsaver CPR
The Heartsaver CPR course teaches CPR and relief of foreign-body airway obstruction (FBAO) to all lay rescuers, particularly those who are expected to respond to emergencies in the workplace. Participants include security guards, firefighters, police, and other lay responders. This course is specifically designed for those participants who require a course completion card - a credential - documenting completion of a CPR course. This course may be modified to meet your particular needs. The Heartsaver CPR course promotes widespread training in CPR in the workplace at low cost. Because the course is primarily for laypersons that are expected to provide CPR in the workplace, the course teaches mouth-to-mouth ventilation and rescue breathing using barrier devices that are typically used for CPR in the workplace. This course can also train laypersons to serve as rescuers in the community, but is primarily designed for participants who are required to attend a CPR course for the workplace. A course completion card (credential) is provided to participants after successful completion of the course. Written Test for CPR and AED in Heartsaver Courses Eliminated.

Heartsaver AED
The Heartsaver AED course teaches CPR and relief of choking in adults and children, and use of barrier devices for all ages.

Written Test for CPR and AED in Heartsaver Courses Eliminated.

Heartsaver First-Aid
The Heartsaver First-Aid course teaches how to manage illness and injuries in the first few minutes until professional help arrives. This course is for those who have a duty to respond to a first-aid or cardiac emergency because of job responsibilities or regulatory requirements or for those people interested in how to perform first-aid.
