Marian Regional Medical Center provides ongoing educational events for the community.
American Heart Association (AHA) Heartsaver CPR AED classes are designed to prepare people to provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and automated external defibrillator (AED) use in a safe, timely and effective manner. An AHA CPR card will be given after successful completion of the class. The card is valid for 2 years. *Note: This class does not cover First Aid and it is not a Healthcare Provider Class. If you need a CPR card for the hospital, or EMT, or something similar, this class will not be sufficient.
Cost: The class is free to all community members.
Class time: All classes will start promptly at 5:00pm. The duration of the class is approximately 3 to 3 ½ hours. We recommend arriving 15 minutes early to find parking and to locate the classroom.
