 When the time comes to saving someone’s life, will you BE READY?

 

Immediate CPR and a shock from an AED (Automated External defibrillator) can double, or even triple the chance of survival of someone experiencing cardiac arrest. By learning how to perform CPR and use an AED, YOU could be the one to make a difference.

 

Mifflin Township Fire Department is an authorized American Heart Association Training Site. We offer certified classes for both Heartsaver CPR/AED and Basic Life Support (BLS) CPR/AED for Healthcare Providers. All certifications are issued immediately upon completion of classes. Most classes are held in-house at our training facility in Gahanna.  Dates and times for open enrollment classes are listed below. 

 

Additionally, as a public service, we offer non-certified Hands Only CPR/ AED classes at our facility or yours, free of charge.  (Gahanna and Mifflin Township area only).  See our contact information below for more information.

Please remember to bring a copy of your online course completion certificate when you arrive to complete the skills testing. Per AHA guidelines, we cannot conduct skills testing without this document, so please make sure you bring it with you on the day of your test.

Hands Only CPR/AED (Non Certified)

Thank you for your interest in learning Hands-Only CPR and AED.  Historically, performing CPR meant checking the airway and giving mouth-to-mouth breaths, in addition to chest compressions, therefore, bystanders were often reluctant to help. Without necessary intervention, survival rates become extremely low.  For this reason, experts are now recommending compression or “Hands-Only” CPR. Performing immediate CPR (including Hands-Only CPR) PLUS the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED) can double, or even triple, survival rates.

 

In this class, you will also learn how to use an AED.  AEDs, or Automated External Defibrillators, are medical devices that can restore a normal heart rhythm to someone experiencing cardiac arrest.  AEDs are easy-to-use and are becoming more common in both public and private places and should be easily accessible for anyone to use.

 

Heartsaver CPR/AED for the DEAF Community

Realizing the need for more inclusive training opportunities, this CPR/AED course is being adapted to meet the specific needs of the DEAF and Hard of Hearing Communities.  American Sign Language interpretation will be provided, thanks to a generous grant from the Dorothy E. Ann Fund of the Columbus Foundation.  

 

Class participants will learn how to perform effective Adult CPR, how to use an AED, including hands-on practice with an AED training device.  And how to help a choking adult.

 

Upon successful completion, participants will receive an American Heart Association course completion certificate, valid for two years.
