Public Safety CPR/AED Classes
The Villages Public Safety Department has announced their CPR schedule for 2024. Three types of classes are offered:
- Basic Life Support (BLS) Healthcare Provider offers a two-year certification card and teaches CPR and Automated External Defibrillator (AED) use for adults, children and infants.
- Family and Friends CPR/AED – In this class residents learn basic compression CPR and AED use for adults, children and infants. This class doesn’t offer a
certification card and it’s recommended you take a refresher every two years. Due to increased popularity, an afternoon session has been added for the Friends and Family CPR.
- The Emergency Care & Safety Institute (ECSI) offers a two-year certification card. The class teaches CPR/AED and basic First Aid for adults, children and infants.
