Comfortable clothes you can kneel and move in. You'll practice compressions on manikins on the floor, so skip anything tight or dressy.

2 years. Your expiration date is printed on your eCard. Plan to renew before it runs out.

Choose First time if you've never taken the course or your card expired long ago. Choose Renewal if your card is expiring soon or recently expired. It helps me plan the class.

Heartsaver courses are built for people who need a CPR, AED or First Aid card for work. Requirements vary by employer and job, so check with your employer to be sure which course they need. Healthcare workers usually need BLS, which I don't offer right now.

Yes. I bring the manikins, AED trainers and supplies to your site and schedule around your shifts. Your employees sign up online, and you get a roster for your training records.
