[Azndude51]

Please answer seperately for both certs

1. Is it hard to get the certification?
2. How long does it take?
3. How much did it cost you or was it free?
4. Where did you get it?

1. No
2. 8 hours
3. Free
4. Onsite nurse at work did it

I am First Aid/CPR and AED certified. Total class time was 8 hours.

 

[Hyperblaze]

1. No
2. 15 hours (standard)
3. 45 bucks for the class. free if you join st. john ambulance. (but you should already have it if you consider joining st. john ambulance)
4. st. john ambulance instructor

edit: guess i should say, I'm First Aid/CPR/AED Certified.

My AED Certification came with a few more hours of class

If you are interested in Getting a MFR (Medical First Responder), it's an extra 50 hours.
