CPR training must be from a department approved source. This must be documented by a current participation card which meets the standards of that individual program. Online CPR training courses are not approved.

 

In order to meet the rule requirement for CPR the following is necessary:

 

1. Successfully complete a written examination and performance on infant, child, or adult mannequin (it is highly recommended that the provider have all three), resulting in certification. The rule does not specify infant, child, or adult so we need to accept any of the three but again highly encourage performance on all three mannequins.

 

2. Approved programs for CPR certification are American Red Cross, American Heart Association, American Safety & Health Institute, ND Safety Council, MEDIC or individual programs upon approval by the department.

 

3. Documentation of completion of the course must be by current participation which meets the requirements of the approved program.

 

Note: A CNA, medical degree, EMS or First Responder certification may not be substituted for CPR certification.
