URGENT MESSAGE FOR HEARTSAVER INSTRUCTORS

On October 3, 2017, the American Heart Association sent out an announcement to the Community Training Centers that there will be an increase in Heartsaver First Aid CPR AED, CPR AED, First Aid, and Pediatric First Aid CPR AED (ALL Heartsaver) student course completion cards/eCards, effective October 3, 2017!

For your review, I have attached 1) all AHA correspondence (4 pages) received by Community Training Centers on October 3, 2017, 2) an updated roster (reflecting the cost increase - $2.20/card > $17/card) and 3) the AHA Account Manager’s name, including contact information.

On behalf of Mid-Carolina AHEC, Inc.’s AHA Community Training Center, thank you for the amazing work that you do everyday promoting, preparing and educating the general public to respond to cardiac events and first aid incidents.  As a 501 (c ) 3 non-profit organization, we have no other method to absorb or share the costs of this significant increase.  The increased costs imposed by the AHA will be incurred by consumers of ALL Heartsaver courses.  As training partners, we will do our best to make this transition as smooth as possible for our instructors and your consumers. 

Your patience and continued support is very much appreciated!
