Programs for first aid, CPR, and AED

First aid training classes last 14-16 hours total, requiring students to have complete attendance, at least 75 percent on the written exam, and adequate demonstration of skills to pass. First aid classes cover the emergency medical services (EMS) system, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), automated external defibrillation (AED), and wound care. Students are able to react to different emergency situations requiring first aid.

CPR and AED training has three categories: A, C, and HCP. Students have to choose from any of the three. All categories include adult CPR and AED training, while C and HCP include pediatric CPR and AED training. Automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are machines that can supply the heart with needed electrical shock through pads on the chest.

Certificates

St Mark James certificate cards are awarded to students upon passing a class. Wall-mount certificates are optional and can be requested. These are only valid for three years and can be renewed through recertification programs.

Standard first aid recertification, the most popular re-cert course, lasts 8 hours and is held twice a week, inclusive of CPR level C recertification.

Sprains

Muscles are held together and attached to the bone with tissues called tendons. They can stretch to allow movement of bones and muscles. However, when the tendons are overstretched, they can get damaged. This is called a sprain. Sprains are usually healed in one to two weeks but if the tendon tears, recovery time can be as long as one to two months. Resting an sprained limb is quite important in the healing process.
