First aid training is designed to teach people the basic principles and techniques to provide immediate help if they witness a serious injury or illness. The goal of first aid is to preserve life and prevent the condition from worsening, in the safest way possible, until professional medical help is available.

This six-week class meets once a week for two and a half hours. Each class includes a new topic designed for family caregivers. The class is a combination of presentations, discussion, and activities with others who have similar experiences. Participants make weekly action plans, share experiences, and help each other solve problems they encounter in creating and carrying out their plan.

Participants must have a web cam that they will have turned on and their face can be seen during the sessions, all other materials will be mailed directly to them at least 1 week prior to the class.

Students must have an audio- and video-enabled laptop, desktop, or tablet with reliable internet to attend online classes. We do not recommend using a smartphone.

This is a recertification program for the Adult First Aid program.  Participants MUST provide a copy of their current, unexpired certification from one of the following entities: American Heart Association (AHA); American Red Cross (ARC); Canadian Red Cross; Health and Safety Institute (ASHI, EMSS, 24-7 Medic); Emergency Care and Safety Institute (ECSI); National Safety Council (NSC).
