2020 Guidelines
Emergency Cardiac Care
What Are ECC Guidelines?
Emergency Cardiac Care (ECC) guidelines are updated every five-years
The Emergency Cardiac Care (ECC) guidelines are scientific guidelines that are developed and peer-reviewed within the medical field related to the most current scientific evidence available for CPR and cardiac care. Guidelines are updated and published every five years and providers should be developing course content within this framework.
The American Heart Association is a representative organization from the United States and responsible for communicating these updated guidelines to us. Emergency Cardiac Care (ECC) guidelines are available to every organization and business that performs CPR related training.

ECC Change
CPR Fundraising provides opioid overdose training in all of our CPR training programs. This training discusses and reviews what opioids are, how addiction occurs, and how to properly care for the medical condition.
ECC Change
CPR Fundraising's training programs all address providing care with CPR based on the absence of breathing and consciousness. Our Instructor Thoughts and video modules within all courses address the low likelihood of injury if CPR is performed on a victim who does not require chest compressions.
Cardiac Emergency Outlook
ECC Change
The addition of debriefings for responders is an important and previously overlooked chain in the cardiac chain of survival. Laypersons will generally have very little to no exposure to the traumatic aftermath that can follow life and death incidents.

ECC Change
CPR Fundraising understands the psychology behind the reluctance people in some of these communities may have as it relates to providing care for a female victim. To that end, CPR Fundraising sends out frequent press releases, social media posts, and outreach efforts in targeted areas to help boost awareness, understanding, and a desire to participate in CPR training programs.

The key drivers to increasing bystander or layperson CPR training are to 1. Make it affordable; 2. Make it easy to complete; 3. Make it easy to understand for people with no previous experience with or exposure to CPR training, and 4. Make it easily accessible for people through the use of smartphones, tablets, and laptop / desktop computers.
CPR Fundraising achieves all of those objectives with our online CPR fundraising platorm.
