At CPR Delmarva, we are proud to offer U.S. Coast Guard–approved (USCG) certificates through our American Heart Association Heartsaver® CPR/AED and First Aid courses. These certifications meet national maritime requirements and are accepted for a wide range of Coast Guard credentials, licenses, and ratings.

Why USCG-Approved Certification Matters

Working on or around the water brings unique risks. The Coast Guard requires crew members, captains, and maritime professionals to maintain valid, approved CPR and First Aid training to ensure safety for passengers, coworkers, and themselves.

Choosing a USCG-approved provider means:

✔ Meets USCG Licensing & Renewal Requirements

Our Heartsaver certifications are recognized by the Coast Guard and fulfill the CPR/AED and First Aid components required for merchant mariner licenses, vessel operators, and other maritime positions.

✔ Nationally Recognized, AHA-Based Training

The American Heart Association (AHA) sets the gold standard for CPR training. Your certificate is backed by the most trusted name in emergency response education.

✔ Practical Skills for Real Emergencies on the Water

Cardiac events, drowning incidents, injuries, and environmental emergencies require fast, confident action. The Heartsaver program prepares you for real-life maritime scenarios.

✔ Convenient On-Site Training for Companies & Crews

We come directly to your marina, vessel, station, or workplace—saving time and keeping your team on schedule.

Discounts available for groups of 5+ within a 50-mile radius of Milford, DE.
