Question 1

How long is a class?

Accepted Answer

Each class will take roughly 2 hours to complete. There is no rush, however. I want to make sure you get all of your questions answered and you have enough hands-on practice time to leave the class feeling more confident with how to handle emergency situations.

Question 2

What kind of space do I need?

Accepted Answer

A class can be held almost anywhere that is most convenient for you or your group. A comfortable place to sit while we talk is great and a little bit of floor space - or the ability to make a little floor space will be needed for the hands-on practice on the mannequins.

Question 3

How do I get my certification card?

Accepted Answer

The certification cards are issued from the American Heart Association. At the time of the class I will get your name, email address, and phone number in order to register you with the AHA and purchase your specific type of card.

You will get an email from ecards@heart.org - it kinda looks like spam - but its not! Don't delete it! When you open up the email there will be a hyperlink.

Clicking on the hyperlink will take you to a third party website where you will need to create a user name and password to log in and verify the information used to register you. If everything looks correct, you can claim your card and it will stay in that same spot for the next two years. If the information entered is not correct, please reach out to me before claiming your card so I can correct it.

After it expires, the card will disappear from the site and you can get it back by renewing your training with me.

Question 4

When does my CPR certification expire?

Accepted Answer

Your certification is good for two full years. It will expire at the end of your renewal month regardless of the actual date.

Question 5

What is a Friends and Family class?

Accepted Answer

Participants in this category of class will not receive a certification card from the AHA. All of the material is covered, but the cost is discounted because certification is not issued. This class helps make all the skills and knowledge more accessible to everyone.

Question 6

How do you accept payment for a CPR class?

Accepted Answer

Individual participants can pay via Venmo, Zelle, cash, or check. At this time, I cannot accept credit card payment.

If this is a corporate class offered by an employer, an invoice will be submitted to the desired department and a check can be issued to Whole Hearted Wellness or Ashley Epstein.

Question 7

How do I set up a group class?

Accepted Answer

Group classes are so much fun and the hardest part will be finding a coordinating date and time. Contact me with what you are hoping to achieve in the class and we will talk through details of collecting payments from participants, finding the most convenient time, and any customized requests.

Question 8

Do you have a location I could come to?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If you or your group would prefer to come to me, I have a couple of different options depending on size and location. Please reach out for more details!
