What Elizabeth Employers Require

Certification requirements are consistent across the area, and the detail that trips people up is the hands-on component.

Trinitas Regional Medical Center

Part of RWJBarnabas Health and the closest major hospital to our classroom. Nursing, allied health and clinical support roles all carry a current AHA BLS requirement.

Elizabeth Public Schools

Teachers, aides, coaches and athletic staff across the district typically need the Red Cross CPR / AED / First Aid course rather than the healthcare provider course.

Licensed Child Care Centers

New Jersey rules require at least two staff members with current first aid and CPR present whenever children are in care, with a mandatory hands-on component that online-only courses do not satisfy.

Port & Logistics Employers

Warehouse, distribution and port-adjacent employers around Elizabeth commonly require CPR / AED / First Aid as part of their OSHA-aligned safety program.

Frequently Asked Questions — CPR Classes Elizabeth

How far is your training center from Elizabeth?+

We are on the same road. Morris Avenue runs from Elizabeth west into Union, where it becomes Route 82. Depending on where in Elizabeth you start, it is a short and simple drive with no highway needed.

Does Trinitas accept your BLS certification?+

Yes. We issue the standard AHA BLS Provider eCard as an authorized AHA training site, which is the credential RWJBarnabas facilities and New Jersey hospitals generally require.

I run a child care center in Elizabeth. What do my staff need?+

The Red Cross CPR / AED / First Aid course at $105, which covers adult, child and infant CPR with AED and first aid, assessed hands-on. New Jersey requires two certified staff on site whenever children are present, so most centers train several people at once — ask us about a group session at your center.
