CPR, First Aid, and AED Training for Church Staff

Ensuring that your church staff is trained in CPR, AED use, and First Aid provides a significant advantage in the event of an emergency. At Medic Response Health & Safety, we have trained numerous churches across Northern Virginia, equipping staff members with the essential knowledge and skills to respond effectively to medical emergencies—both within the church and during events.

Having certified individuals on-site enhances preparedness and safety for your congregation and community. This is especially crucial for churches with childcare programs, where immediate response can be critical, particularly if emergency medical services (EMS) are not nearby.

Flexible Training Options

We offer American Heart Association (AHA) Heartsaver in-person training sessions at your church, as well as online blended learning for small groups. Our training is designed to be convenient, comprehensive, and tailored to meet the unique needs of faith-based organizations.

Does Your Church Have an AED On-Site?

An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a life-saving device designed to treat sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) by delivering an electric shock to restore a normal heart rhythm. SCA occurs when the heart’s normal rhythm is disrupted, preventing it from pumping blood effectively. Without immediate intervention, this condition can be fatal.

AEDs are equipped with built-in sensors and advanced algorithms to assess a person’s heart rhythm. If a shock is necessary, the device provides clear, step-by-step instructions, guiding even untrained bystanders through the process. When used alongside cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), an AED significantly improves survival rates and reduces the risk of brain damage due to oxygen deprivation.

While AEDs are commonly found in public places like airports, shopping malls, and schools, they are equally important in churches, workplaces, and homes. Having an AED on-site ensures your church is prepared for emergencies, allowing staff and members to take immediate action before professional medical help arrives.
