American Heart Association Heartsaver First Aid Course

Heartsaver First Aid Course

The goal of the Heartsaver first aid course is to prepare participants to handle the most common life-threatening emergencies. Participants will learn the basics of recognizing emergencies, knowing when to call for help, and performing both basic and lifesaving skills. As a result, participants who complete this course will be certified by the American Heart Association® (AHA®) as a First Aid Provider. An American Heart Association certification eCard is also provided upon completion.

Heartsaver First Aid Course Objectives

In this course, participants learn how to:

Recognize and handle medical emergencies
Manage illness and injury until professional help arrives
Relieve choking in adults, children, and infants
Handle environmental emergencies

*This course does not satisfy requirements for anyone needing CPR/AED certification, though our Basic Life Support course does fulfill this requirement. Learn more about our Basic Life Support course.

Heartsaver First Aid Course Length

The Heartsaver First Aid course consists of three (3) hours on online instruction.

Intended Audience

We encourage employees and students required to have a first aid certification to take this class. This class is also great for members of the general public looking to learn first aid basics.
