Health and Science Institute® Adult First Aid/Adult CPR AED
Adult First Aid/Adult CPR AED (automated external defibrillator) is a basic training course in emergency care designed for use in the business/industrial setting. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), AED use, and other important emergency care skills are combined into this course, which allows the graduate to function with one consistent set of priorities in a medical emergency. Students learn the same priorities of care and approach to the patient used by professionals. This approach results in a continuity of care as the patient is passed on to the EMT, nurse, and doctor.
Successful completion of the course means the student has acquired these skills, understands the dangers of an emergency scene and how to evaluate them, and understands the use of protective barriers. Taught by nationally certified instructors, the course satisfies OSHA requirements for industry and business.
Adult First Aid/Adult CPR AED course will be offered Wednesday, June 24, from 7:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. EDT in the Health and Wellness Classroom at Memorial Southside Office, 1100 West 12th Avenue in Jasper.
The fee for the class is $68; class size is limited, and pre-registration is required by visiting Deaconess Memorial Medical Center’s website at www.deaconess.com and clicking on “Classes & Events,” or calling Deaconess Wellness Solutions – Jasper at 812-996-2399 or toll-free at 800-852-7279, ext. 2399.
