Course: American Red Cross: Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED Blended Learning

First aid, CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation), and AED (automated external defibrillator) skills can save lives at the library or at home. Earn an American Red Cross Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED two-year certificate by participating in this important safety training.

This course will prepare you to recognize and care for a variety of first aid breathing and cardiac emergencies involving adults, children, and infants. It is a blended learning course--including an online portion and an instructor-led classroom skill session--that meets OSHA/workplace requirements.
