As stated in the CCDBG guidelines all staff shall be “trained” not “certified” in CPR & F/A.  We support 100% of staff to be “trained” and for 50% to be certified. This allows one teacher to perform CPR and/or FA and the other teacher to care for the children. We also need a 90 day, not a 30 day, grace period for new staff requiring certification.  Even with these requested changes, this is a significant improvement over the current requirement of one staff to be CPR/FA certified.
