EMSA (Emergency Medical Services Authority)
AB 243, the California Childcare Law, mandates that at least one staff member with fifteen hours of CPR, first aid, and preventative health and safety training be present in the childcare setting. Large centers prefer to train their entire staff in CPR & First-aid to be prepared for an emergency. However, it is not necessary to train the entire staff in EMSA CPR and First-aid. The law specifies that only one person is required to be trained in the full 15 hours of training. Many centers train 2-3 staff in the full 15 hours and then train the rest of the staff in basic CPR and First-aid.
• EMSA CPR: 4 hours, valid two years
• EMSA First-aid: 4 hours, valid two years
• EMSA Health & Safety: 7 hours, this course does not have an expiration date.
Safety Training Seminars has been providing EMSA training classes since they started and we are very knowledgeable about these laws. If you have questions about compliance issues, certification, or EMSA, please call us or send us an email.
Warning of Fraud
We have received information that non-approved programs and/or non-approved instructors have taught classes without EMS Authority approval to train childcare providers. Anyone who has a pediatric first aid, pediatric CPR, and/or a preventive health course completion card issued by a non-certified training program or a non-approved instructor, must retake, and pay to retake, the classes from an EMS Authority approved program. A valid certificate for each course is required and must be obtained before you can work in the childcare environment. Call us anytime for questions or send us an email.
Group Classes at your Site
STS is able to teach classes at your site with a minimum number of 14 students. A lot of centers offer the training to the parents, since it is a great service.
