Heartsaver First Aid CPR AED

  • The American Heart Association's Heartsaver First Aid CPR AED course is designed for anyone with little or no medical training who wants to be prepared for an emergency in any setting.

    Heartsaver uses a research-proven practice-while-watching technique, which allows instructors to observe the students, provide feedback, and guide the students’ learning of skills.

  • Heartsaver courses cover critical skills needed to respond to and manage an emergency until emergency medical services arrives including:

    • First aid basics

    • Medical emergencies

    • Injury emergencies

    • Environmental emergencies

    • Preventing illness and injury

    • Opioid-associated life-threatening emergencies.

    • Adult CPR and AED use

    • Child CPR and AED use

    • Infant CPR

  • Heartsaver skills sessions are scheduled quarterly on Wednesday 3:00PM - 5:00PM (see schedule at the bottom of the page).

    Heartsaver team/group reservations may be specially scheduled for a day and time as agreed upon with the Elevate program coordinator.

  • Heartsaver skills sessions are typically held at our Mammoth location (121 College Pkwy, Mammoth Lakes) in the lobby of the South Gateway Apartments.

    Alternative locations may be accommodated for team/group reservations as agreed upon by the Elevate program coordinator.

    • Flat rate for 3-6 participants/group

    • Does not include travel costs if alternative location is used.

    • Team reservations are offered for a flat rate, so teams are encouraged to fill vacancies to maintain cost-effectiveness.

    ***The American Heart Association strongly promotes knowledge and proficiency in all AHA courses and has developed instructional materials for this purpose. Use of these materials in an educational course does not represent course sponsorship by the AHA. Any fees charged for such a course, except for a portion of fees needed for AHA course materials, do not represent income to the AHA.

  • Heartsaver courses do not cover requirements of a healthcare provider BLS course. Heartsaver courses are often completed by those who need a course completion card for their job or regulatory requirements (i.e. OSHA).

    Participants younger than 18 need parental consent, and participants younger than 15 must be accompanied by an attending adult for Heartsaver courses. Participants younger than 13, please check out our Safe Sitter Essentials with CPR classes for more age-appropriate learning options.

    All participants are required to be physically capable of performing a minimum of 2 minutes of chest compressions.

    Heartsaver workshop and team reservations maintain a 1 instructor: 6 students ratio. Workshops and team reservations should have a minimum of 3 participants.
