The Heartsaver CPR course is designed to teach the lay person how to perform High-Quality CPR on an adult, child and infant. The student will also learn how to apply and operate an AED on an adult manikin. The student must show competency through a skills test for each segment of the course; meaning a skills test for Adult CPR w/AED, Child CPR and Infant CPR. The student will also learn the steps on how to treat a conscious adult choking victim and an unresponsive adult choking victim, as well as a choking child and a choking infant. The course material for the Heartsaver CPR program follows the American Heart Association guidelines for Adult, Child and Infant CPR. An AHA CPR/AED student manual is required for the course. The student manual can be picked up from the AHA Training Center at St. Peter’s Health Center, or calling 444-2375.
