Education & Training

As humans, we never lose the capacity to learn. As we grow, our desire for knowledge can even increase. At Hammond-Henry Hospital, we have many options to help educate our community about health topics and even life-saving techniques. American Heart Association Authorized Provider

What kind of life-saving techniques do you teach?

  • First Aid – learn critical skills to respond to and manage an emergency in the first few minutes until emergency medical services arrive.
  • CPR – A hands-on course for those interested in learning how to save a life. Friends and Family CPR and those seeking a CPR course completion card.
  • ACLS and PALS – instructor-led training that highlights the recognition and intervention of cardiopulmonary arrest, immediate post-cardiac arrest, acute dysrhythmia, stroke, and acute coronary syndromes (ACS).

These classes are offered to schools, churches, businesses, groups or individuals for a nominal fee. If you’d like to find out more about course offerings, please call 309.944.9133 to request a course. Recently, we purchased mannequins that give feedback on the effectiveness of CPR.
