Many of the great troop activities that you will do require a First Aid/CPR certified Adult to be present. Whenever you plan an activity outside of the regular meeting place, you should first check the Safety Activity Checkpoints. Why Require First Aid / CPR certification?
First aid courses cover a wide variety of accidents from scrapes and cuts to bruises, choking, and accidental poisoning. First aid knowledge can turn a monumental accident into a small inconvenience. Loss of breathing is another situation that can lead to a need for CPR. All important things to consider when assuming care for other people’s children.

Please take the time to carefully review the information below to make sure that you are making an informed choice when selecting a training provider so that you spend your money and time wisely. (Please note - first aid/cpr online training does not satisfy Girl Scouts’ requirements because such training does not offer enough opportunities to practice and receive feedback on your technique.)
