Class details:

The course KonaCPR offers for CPR and First Aid training is Emergency First Response.  The Emergency First Response program teaches the same skills as found within the American Heart Associated or American Red Cross First aid and CPR courses.  This course meets requirements for CPR and First Aid in the workplace (OSHA Guideline 29 CFR 1910.151), and incorporates the latest procedures for emergency patient care. Other organizations that recognize EFR as meeting their requirements are United States Coast Guard, The Boy Scouts of America, and the American Council on Exercise (ACE), Hawaii Massage Board, Hawaii DOE and many more.

Along with using the latest methods, manuals and training videos for teaching, we teach classes with low group sizes to manikins, AED trainers and introduce students to oxygen administration.  Manikins used teach and provide real-like stimuli to compression and rescue breaths as manikins require proper head tilt/chin lift techniques to open airways for rescue ventilation, give visible chest rise with breaths, have anatomical landmark points and audible compression clickers when correct depth of compressions are reached.
