This American Heart Association class was designed with the purpose to teach lay rescuers the knowledge and skills needed to recognize emergencies, give first aid and/or CPR to adult and child, and infant victims. The use of the Automated External Defibrillator (AED) and relief of choking is included in the curriculum. Participants often include security guards, firefighters, police, school teachers, coaches, foster parents and childcare providers. A course completion card is issued the next business day to participants after they have successfully completed the skills demonstrations. The course completion card is valid for two years.
A minimum enrollment of two (2) attendees is required or the course may be cancelled.
A current student manual is required for class attendance. Course manual cost is $16.00. These are available for purchase at Oroville Hospital Education Department, if needed. Please call for further details, Monday through Friday from 7:00 am to 5:00 pm at (530) 712-2140
