Course Objectives and Importance

The American Red Cross aims to equip individuals to recognize and respond appropriately in emergencies, providing immediate care until advanced medical help is available.
Course objectives encompass helping participants make informed decisions upon witnessing emergencies.

Instructors’ Responsibilities

Successful skill sessions require instructors to offer direction, ample practice time, encouragement, and corrective feedback.
Instructors should evaluate skills based on objectives rather than exact performance standards.

Participant Engagement and Skill Acquisition

Participants learn effectively when they know skill sequences, receive feedback during practice, and have prior understanding of skills.
Critical observation skills are important for both instructors and participants to identify correct and incorrect steps in skill performance.

Course Structure and Content

Scenarios for CPR-Adult and Child courses can include either Adult or Child CPR scenarios for training purposes.
Instructors are responsible for observing participants and employing assessment tools, rather than stopping the entire class for individual mistakes.

Learning Facilitation Techniques

Effective facilitation incorporates identifying participant interests, summarizing key points, and maintaining a balance in interactions.
The four concepts of learning—Motivation, Association, Repetition, Senses (MARS)—help enhance skill retention.

Certification and Course Requirements

Basic-level certificates are awarded to participants who hold a current valid certificate, complete all course activities, and achieve a minimum score on written exams.
CPR-Pediatric trainings require specific videos tailored to the age group, not Adult videos.

Classroom Setup and Practice Standards

Proper classroom arrangement ensures participants have sufficient space for practice and viewing instructional materials.
Before practicing on manikins, participants must utilize protective equipment and maintain sanitary practices.

Practice and Evaluation

Participants unable to perform critical skills should be encouraged to remain engaged in class activities, despite not being eligible for certification.
Course delivery relies on strict adherence to planned outlines and lesson plans to ensure standardized training.

Health and Safety Protocols

Health and safety measures minimize disease transmission risks through the proper use of manikins and protective equipment.
Course design includes safety protocols to protect participants from injury during practice.
