EMS MEDICAL TRAINING
The NJ DOH requires at least 30 days notice for registering classes for CEU credits.
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Automated External Defibrillators (AED)
The average response time for first responders once 9-1-1 is called is 8-12 minutes. For each minute defibrillation is delayed, the chance of survival reduces by approximately 10%. Fortunately, with CPR/AED training, which takes just a few short hours, you can gain the skills necessary to help save a life. Once your training has been successfully completed, you’ll receive a two-year certification in CPR/AED, and have the ability to access refresher materials at any time during your certification period. These programs are available for individuals, schools, heath care providers, business, industrial facilities, warehouse facilities and more.
