AED Certification in New York

During a cardiac event every moment counts. In fact, each minute that defibrillation is delayed reduces someone's chances of survival by 10%, and with response times of first responders averaging 8 to 12 minutes after 911 is called, it's easy to see why AED classes are vital for members of the community. By participating in American Red Cross AED training in New York, you can gain the skills to deliver care for sudden cardiac arrest until medical professionals arrive.

The American Red Cross delivers AED classes in New York that are designed for the way you live and learn. With online, in-person, and our best-in-class Simulation Learning experience, which blends online classwork with in-person skills sessions, it's easy to get the training you need.

Developed to mirror a traditional learning environment, the Red Cross's in-person AED classes in New York allow you to learn how to use an automated external defibrillator under the guidance of trained, local experts. Combining lecture with hands-on skills sessions, these courses give you time to ask questions and work through problems as a team while learning the latest techniques.

After successfully completing your Red Cross AED training in New York, your certification credentials will be valid for two years. During this time you'll have access to online refresher materials, and as your certification's expiration date nears, you'll have the option to take an abbreviated AED renewal class. This way, you can stay up to date on the latest information and techniques, and extend your certification by two more years.

Even after taking Red Cross AED classes in New York, remembering your skills can be a challenge, particularly if you don't use them regularly. To help keep your skills sharp and your memory fresh, we've developed a quick step-by-step guide that you can print up and place in a binder, on your refrigerator, at your desk or in your bag, and refer to whenever, wherever you need to.
