Authorized Provider

RCUH is offering First Aid, CPR, and Automated External Defibrillator (AED) training for supervisors of RCUH employees. First Aid/CPR training strengthens our Safety Program and our efforts to comply with Federal and State Occupational Safety and Health regulations.

Hawaii’s Occupational Safety & Health Law §1910.151 Medical services and first aid (b) states: “In the absence of an infirmary, clinic, or hospital in near proximity to the workplace which is used for the treatment of all injured employees, a person or persons shall be adequately trained to render first aid. Adequate first aid supplies shall be readily available.”

We encourage anyone (UH, State, Federal or RCUH employee) who supervises RCUH staff to attend this training (at NO COST to the project except for staff time). This training is also available to employees that require First Aid/CPR/AED certification as part of their job requirements (as specified in the employee’s RCUH job description).

RCUH will cover all supply and administrative expenses. All attendees who successfully complete the course and demonstrate the required skill sets will receive ARC Certification Cards.

The following is the course outline:

1. Introduction – Before Giving Care
2. Checking an Ill or Injured Person
3. Breathing Emergencies and Conscious Choking
4. Cardiac Emergencies
5. CPR and Unconscious Choking
6. Using an Automated External Defibrillator (AED)
7. Soft Tissue Injuries
8. Injuries to Muscles, Bones, and Joints
