Heartsaver ® First Aid $65

The 2015 Guidelines Update for First Aid reaffirms the goals of first aid: to reduce morbidity and mortality by alleviating suffering, preventing further illness or injury, and promoting recovery. The scope of first aid has been expanded, particularly for control of severe bleeding. First aid can be initiated by anyone, in any situation, and includes self-care.

AHA’s Heartsaver First Aid course provides the knowledge and skills that may help save a life. It offers the basics of first aid, consisting of the most common life-threatening emergencies, how to recognize them, how to call for help, and how to perform lifesaving skills. The most important goal of this course is to teach students to act in an emergency.

Heartsaver courses from AHA offer cohesive and consistent experiences for the student, best practices to give students an unparalleled learning experience, and helping the student better retain information with enhanced and realistic scenarios while providing course and content flexibility.

Group rates available. Book an entire class of 6 for a 10% discount.
