CPR First Aid AED Certification Course San Diego Spring Valley SOTC Required for Guard Card Renewal — AHA-Aligned

About This Course

Duration: Approximately 4 hours  |  Who it's for: Security guards renewing their guard card, or anyone who needs a current CPR certification

California requires CPR certification as part of your security guard card renewal — but that requirement exists for a good reason. Security officers are often the first person on scene at a medical emergency. Heart attacks, choking incidents, and injuries happen at the sites you protect. The first four minutes before paramedics arrive are the most critical. This American Heart Association-aligned Heartsaver course gives you the skills to act — covering adult, child, and infant CPR, AED operation, and first aid essentials. At $80, it's one of the most valuable certifications you'll ever carry.
