About the Blended Medic First Aid CPR/AED Training Programs Course

The Blended MEDIC First Aid CPR/AED course is a hybrid training program that combines online SCORM modules with a scheduled hands-on skills session. Online materials include interactive cognitive lessons, a downloadable participant handbook, skill-sheet checklists, AED quick-reference cards, and recorded knowledge checks. Every online lesson is mobile-friendly and resumes automatically so learners can complete the cognitive portion on their own schedule before the instructor-led practical evaluation.

Course materials also include a printable certificate of completion valid for two years, a digital wallet card for employer and OSHA auditor verification, and downloadable reference pages aligned with the most current American Heart Association and Emergency Cardiovascular Care guidelines referenced by the MEDIC First Aid program. The handbook consolidates adult, child, and infant CPR steps, choking management, rescue breathing, and AED operation sequences so first responders can review the skills between refresher cycles.

• Interactive cognitive SCORM modules covering BLS and first aid topics
• Downloadable participant handbook and pocket reference
• Skill-sheet checklists for adult, child, and infant CPR and AED
• Final assessment, printable certificate, and two-year wallet card

Participants receive access to the online pre-work modules, a skills reference booklet, an AED post-event inspection checklist, a First Aid response algorithm card, and a two-year certification card mailed or issued digitally upon successful completion.

Participants additionally receive an AED inspection and readiness log template aligned to manufacturer-specific maintenance schedules, a Stop the Bleed tourniquet technique job aid, a pediatric-specific first aid quick-reference card, a glossary of cardiac and respiratory terms drawn from the most recent American Heart Association Guidelines for CPR and ECC update, and a post-incident documentation form suitable for workers' compensation filings. Employers receive a verification letter on request for inclusion in audit files and contractor prequalification packages.

What You Will Learn in Blended Medic First Aid CPR/AED Training Programs

This blended program combines online cognitive learning with an instructor-led hands-on skills session, issuing credentials accepted by OSHA, state regulators, and most employer safety programs. The online modules and the skills evaluation together cover:

• The chain of survival, responder safety, scene assessment, and personal protective equipment.
• Recognition and treatment of sudden cardiac arrest, choking, stroke, heart attack, severe bleeding, shock, burns, heat and cold emergencies, poisoning, diabetic emergencies, seizures, and allergic reactions.
• Adult, child, and infant CPR — high-quality chest compressions at 100 to 120 per minute with full recoil, rescue breaths with a barrier device, two-rescuer CPR, and AED pad placement with prompt shock delivery.
• Airway-obstruction management using abdominal thrusts, chest thrusts, and back-blow techniques for conscious and unconscious victims across all age groups.
• First aid skills: direct pressure for bleeding, tourniquet application under Stop the Bleed principles, splinting, cervical-spine motion restriction, and use of an epinephrine auto-injector.

The program aligns with current American Heart Association and American Red Cross guidelines (2020 ECC update and subsequent guidance revisions) and satisfies the first-aid training requirement of 29 CFR 1910.151 where medical services are not in near proximity.

Who Should Take Blended Medic First Aid CPR/AED Training Programs

This training is built for designated workplace first responders, safety committee members, floor wardens, plant nurses, lifeguards, coaches, teachers, childcare workers, and volunteer emergency responders who may be called on to recognize and respond to sudden cardiac arrest, choking, breathing emergencies, and injury emergencies. It also satisfies the first aid and CPR requirements embedded in many OSHA standards including 29 CFR 1910.151, 1926.50, and the process safety management element of 1910.119.

Employers operating construction sites, manufacturing plants, office buildings, warehouses, schools, and healthcare support facilities will find the Blended MEDIC First Aid CPR/AED course valuable as their documented training path for first responders under the emergency action plan required by 29 CFR 1910.38. Contractors bidding on projects with prequalification scoring systems such as ISNetworld, Avetta, and ComplyWorks benefit from the documented two-year certification.

Anyone assigned to an AED response team, a confined space rescue standby role, a remote worksite with delayed EMS response, or a facility medical emergency team should complete Blended MEDIC First Aid CPR/AED training. HR, EHS, and training coordinators often enroll groups ahead of the two-year recertification deadline to keep a documented record of every responder's current certification status.

The program is also valuable for daycare and camp staff, lifeguards seeking a combined CPR and first aid credential, construction first aid responders working under 29 CFR 1926.50, industrial first aid teams in manufacturing and warehouse settings, security guards, flight attendants seeking refresher training, and home health aides. Participants preparing for OSHA regulated industries that require on-site first aid responders within specific response-time limits benefit from the program's alignment with 29 CFR 1910.151, and community-based CERT volunteers use the content to strengthen neighborhood emergency preparedness.

Prerequisites

Learners should have the physical ability to kneel and perform chest compressions on an adult, child, and infant manikin during the hands-on skills session. Familiarity with their workplace emergency action plan, the location of on-site AEDs, and the internal reporting and EMS activation procedures will accelerate the scene-assessment sections of the program.

No prior certification is required to enroll in the initial course; however, learners must complete all online cognitive modules before presenting for the instructor-led skills evaluation. A modern browser, a reliable internet connection, a device with audio, and a quiet practice space are the only technical requirements for the online portion.
