Please read this page in its entirety as it outlines all pre-class requirements.
Beginning July 1, 2008 all CPR renewal courses will be administered through a combination of online learning and in-class skills demonstration. Participants who enroll in this class will complete the necessary learning online prior to the start of class. On the day of class, participants will demonstrate skills in a classroom setting with a certified CPR Instructor.
The CPR Renewal class utilizes the most current CPR guidelines for instruction. These guidelines incorporate a patient-focused approach to treating respiratory and cardiac arrest, as well as foreign body airway obstruction measures for infants, children and adults.
