Hello, student(s)!

My name is Maria Wiltscheck, instructor of daily CPR classes at The Commerce Center, 1099 Gum Branch Rd, Jacksonville, NC 28540. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me directly. You can email me at CPRmobile.me@gmail.com, or text/call my cell at 507-766-5185 (my New Ulm, MN number). Please note that I rarely pick up the phone as I am usually teaching class or surrounded by my three screaming children; email or text are preferred! Please provide relevant information (your full name, class date, etc) when contacting me.

ONLINE COMPONENT

This is a BLENDED class. An online component will be assigned to your Red Cross Blended Learning Portal (https://www.redcrosslearningcenter.org/s/login/) within 1 day of registration/payment. It is usually assigned within just a couple of hours. Be sure to disable your popup blocker, and email CPRmobile.me@gmail.com if you do not see it on your account. DO NOT MAKE AN ADDITIONAL PURCHASE THROUGH RED CROSS - your payment through CPR Mobile will cover this fee/component.

Your online component must be completed prior to your in-person skills session. If you do not complete it prior to class, you will need to reschedule.

ARRIVAL

• Arrive at least 10 minutes early. Doors generally open about 10-20 minutes prior to class and lock at the start of class.

• Doors to the facility lock at the start of class. If you arrive at 4:30pm for your 4:30pm class, you will arrive to locked doors and may need to pay a $20 rescheduling fee.

• NO AUDITORS/NON-STUDENTS/TODDLERS/INFANTS ALLOWED FOR PUBLIC CLASSES.

REFUNDS & CANCELLATION

• If you need to reschedule, please email CPRmobile.me@gmail.com AT LEAST TWO HOURS PRIOR TO CLASS. If you email less than two hours prior to the start of class, and you are the only student, there will be a $20 rescheduling fee.

• All refunds are done as CLASS CREDIT, which will be posted to your account associated with CPR Mobile.

REGISTRATION

• REGISTER WITH THE EXACT NAME AND EMAIL ADDRESS to be applied to the certification.

• Students will get automated text and email messages with event details.

• Students will also get a reminder when they are 3, 2, and 1 month from expiring in approximately 2 years.

• These texts/emails are meant to be a courtesy (NOT SPAM/promotional) to help students get to class on-time, and so students don't run into issues "expiring" while employed (this can result in legal/employment issues).

PAYMENT

• $90 at registration. This is required to create your online component.

IN-PERSON SKILLS REQUIREMENTS

To gain certification, the student is required to perform proficiently at an objective standard. Failure to meet these criteria will mean that the student will not receive a certification of successful completion. Class fees are not refunded when the student does not meet these criteria.

Students are required to perform, at a minimum, 30 high-quality compressions and 2 ventilations with the manikin positioned ON THE FLOOR. Students must demonstrate cognitive understanding and proficiency of all skills. Required skills include identifying cardiac arrest, effective communication, performing a 2-minute high-quality CPR scenario with no prompting, and using an AED trainer safely and correctly. THESE PHYSICAL PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS ARE NOT WAIVED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. Please keep this in mind if you are suffering from an injury, recovering from surgery, or are currently pregnant.

Again, if you have any questions at all, please contact Maria at CPRmobile.me@gmail.com or 507-766-5185.
