Hands Only CPR/AED & Choking Relief - 90 minute course
Instructor: Santa Clara County Fire Department Staff
Participants will learn how to perform high quality compressions on an adult, child, and infant, utilize an automatic external defibrillator (AED), and aid an adult, child, or infant who is choking.
Most often, citizens will need to perform CPR on family, friends or co-workers. Learn how to perform proper compressions and use an AED in the precious moments before first responders arrive. If an AED is utilized in the first 5 minutes of a cardiac arrest, the patient will 'wake up' on the first shock, 9 out of 10 times.
You will not learn breathing (head tilt, chin lift) in this class. This course focuses on high quality compressions and how to use an AED. Participants will receive a pocket mask and travel first aid kit.
Participants will *not* receive a two-year CPR/AED certification. This is not a Heartsaver CPR/AED class. This is not a BLS CPR class.
Students must be 13 years or older. Students who are minors need to have a parent or guardian sign a release of liability form prior to leaving a student in the class. You may also request the form be emailed to you prior to the class.
