Virtual CPR/AED & First Aid Certification
Learn Life-Saving Skills from Home and Support Our Mission to Protect Young Hearts In Our Community
Health & Safety Institute (HSI) and Parent Heart Watch (PHW) with its local member foundations have partnered to offer HSI’s Remote Skills Verification (RSV) training technology for CPR, AED and First Aid to increase the SCA survival rate beyond 10%, where it has remained stagnant for three decades. Given over 356,000 people are lost each year to SCA, including up to 23,000 youth, there is a critical need to equip the public with basic skills that could triple a victim’s chance of survival.

Your Discount is Donated to Save Lives!
A key pillar of our Vision 2030 is to empower the public to respond to a cardiac emergency. CPR alone can triple an SCA victim’s chance of survival, and using an AED within the first minutes of collapse can increase survival to 90%!
When you get certified through this program, you not only receive a discounted rate for the course, that savings is donated to support both our national movement and local programs to raise the standard of care. Your participation drives our initiatives to equip everyone to recognize and respond to sudden cardiac arrest, which is proven to save lives.
