The primary purpose of the American Red Cross First Aid/CPR/AED program is to help participants recognize and respond appropriately to cardiac, breathing, and first aid emergencies. This course teaches the participant the knowledge and skills needed to give immediate care to an injured or ill person and to decided whether advance medical care is needed.
