Introduction

We Come to You

We Come to You

  • Classes are taught at your site or campus, which can be anywhere within 200 miles of Nashville. 
  • Scroll down for course list (or click).
  • Clients include businesses, corporations, dental and medical offices, factories, churches, and schools. Business clients range in size from small to large. Instruction at schools is for both teachers and students. 
  • The requested minimum is six students, but please call if you have fewer.
  • Individuals or smaller groups may register for classes taught at the Brentwood Public Library. See our Private Classes page.

Certification

We Come to You

  • The certification card is your proof of successful training. 
  • Our cards are from the Health & Safety Institute (HSI, pictured) and the American Heart Association (AHA).
  • HSI and AHA cards meet all OSHA requirements (Occupational Safety and Health Administration). 
  • Due to OSHA, employers reject "instant" CPR cards from the Internet. Why? No manikin practice!
  • Do it right: our training always uses a manikin. Your card will be accepted.

Your Own Manikin and Online Training

Your Own Manikin and Online Training

  • Each student gets his or her own CPR manikin, for hands-on practice. 
  • Feel and learn the right rhythm, the right pressure, and how do to rescue breaths.
  • Clients start with online training. That reduces the in-person time and lets you see demonstrations. 
  • You can adjust online to suit your own pace.
  • After online training, you still need an instructor for review and to give you CPR practice on a manikin. 
  • Instructor evaluation is  required for certification.
  • Scroll down for course list.

List of Available Courses

Classes for 2025

We are pleased to offer courses designed by national leaders in health and safety instruction, the American Heart Association (AHA) and the Health & Safety Institute (HSI). Scroll down for sections below: AHA and HSI Overviews, CPR Classes, Training for Health Care Providers, First Aid, and Fees. Most clients take our courses with blended learning. They start with computer-based, online lessons, which are combined with an in-person session for hands-on skill practice and performance evaluation.

American Heart Association (AHA)

Healthcare providers usually prefer the greater depth of training in AHA courses. Non-professionals usually prefer HSI. "Training for Healthcare Providers" is offered only as AHA training. Everything else has both AHA and HSI versions.

Health & Safety Institute (HSI)

HSI courses are simpler than AHA, but they still conform to AHA guidelines. HSI is ideal way to learn the basics, without going into details that a healthcare provider should know. Note: HSI is also known as ASHI, the American Safety & Health Institute.


CPR Classes

This section is for training on CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation). Classroom time varies according to skill level and number of of students. Renewal versions are often shorter. The certification is good for two years.

CPR & First Aid Combination

6 -8 Hours

This is our most popular class. It combines CPR and first aid training. See details in the CPR and First Aid descriptions.

Adult CPR and Using the AED

3 -4 Hours

Adult CPR teaches lay rescuers how to recognize and treat life-threatening emergencies, including cardiac arrest and choking. After a sudden cardiac arrest, CPR allows a bystander to restore some oxygen to the brain through a combination of chest compressions and rescue breaths. This course teaches how to do CPR, including practice on a manikin.

 

This course also teaches how to use the automated external defibrillator. The AED is computerized medical device to rescue victims of cardiac arrest. 

Infant and Child CPR

3 -4 Hours

This is similar to Adult CPR but instructions are adjusted to cover infants and children. 

Adult, Infant, and Child CPR

4 - 6 Hours

This begins with Adult CPR then continues with Infant/Child CPR.  


Training for Healthcare Providers

This is American Heart Association training for BLS (Basic Life Support). Certification is for two years. Healthcare provider organizations overwhelming prefer AHA certification cards. The training below includes all necessary test questions and skill checks. When you are online, adaptive learning technology makes the pace right for you. The more you know, the faster you go, or slower if you do not know. The system gives extra instruction if you answer a question incorrectly or slowly.

Renewal of Basic Life Support for Healthcare Providers

2 - 4 Hours

This is for professionals who need Basic Life Support training (renewals only). 

  • STEP 1. Start with an online purchase: Buy HeartCode® BLS Online. (Click for details.) 
  • STEP 2. Finish with a hands-on session. Buy it from CPR Plus More. This is in addition to the online part. Call for price.
  • Topics: Chains of Survival; CPR; using an automated external defibrillator (AED); multi-rescuer resuscitations; special considerations; and foreign-body airway obstruction. Training covers all ages.


First Aid

Some rescuers take first aid as part of their employer's efforts to comply with regulations from the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA). Certfication is for two years except Bloodborne Pathogens, which is one year.

First Aid

3 - 4 Hours

Learn to recognize the signs and symptoms of injuries and sudden illnesses. Learn how to  treat victims in the critical first minutes until emergency medical personnel arrive. Subjects include how to deal with bleeding, soft tissue injuries, muscle and bone injuries, facial injuries, shock, burns, allergic reaction, diabetic problems, seizures, poisoning, bites, stings, heat emergencies including heat exhaustion and heat stroke, and cold emergencies including hypothermia and frostbite. 

Bloodborne Pathogens

About 1 Hour

Learn how to minimize or eliminate contact with human blood and other potentially infectious material.  It meets the "Bloodborne Pathogens Standard" of OSHA, the Occupational and Safety Health Administration.

Bloodborne Pathogens & First Aid Combination

4- 5 Hours

Clients needing Bloodborne Pathogens almost always want the course combined with First Aid.


Fees

Please call for a price quote. Fees are lower than most competitors. Because we come to you or conduct classes at a library, everyone saves the expense of classroom space. The fee per student is usually less than $100. It depends on the number of students, the type of course, and how many courses are taken at once. We cover all of Middle Tennesse for on-site training. Locations distant from the Nashville area have a reasonable travel fee.
