Safety Training Seminars
Augusta is Georgia’s second-largest city and one of the Southeast’s most significant medical education hubs — where AU Health, Charlie Norwood VA Medical Center, and a rapidly expanding clinical workforce serve a patient population drawn from across the Central Savannah River Area. Emergency preparedness here is a professional baseline, not an option. Safety Training Seminars offers BLS CPR, ACLS, and PALS courses built for Augusta’s healthcare professionals.
Richmond County’s healthcare footprint is shaped by the presence of Augusta University Health — home to the Medical College of Georgia, one of the oldest and largest medical schools in the Southeast, and AU Medical Center on Laney-Walker Boulevard, which serves as the region’s primary academic acute care facility. Doctors Hospital of Augusta on Wrightsboro Road extends the clinical network further, and the Charlie Norwood VA Medical Center on Wiegers Boulevard brings one of the region’s largest veteran patient populations into a clinical ecosystem that spans multiple campuses across the Augusta metro. Every provider operating within this system carries real accountability for emergency response readiness.
Safety Training Seminars delivers BLS CPR, ACLS, and PALS courses in Downtown Augusta through hands-on instruction that goes well beyond passive online completion. Students work through compression mechanics, AED deployment, rescue breathing, and team-coordinated resuscitation in a focused clinical training environment that builds genuine skill. Healthcare professionals across Richmond County choose Safety Training Seminars for BLS CPR, ACLS, PALS, and First Aid training because the instructors bring clinical depth into every session, the scheduling accommodates hospital shift realities, and the AHA Course Completion eCard is ready before you walk out the door.
Our Downtown Augusta training center is positioned for practical access from across the CSRA and the broader two-state metro. Providers based in the Summerville, Harrisburg, and Olde Town neighborhoods of Augusta are just minutes from our Broad Street location along the city’s historic commercial corridor. Those commuting from Evans and Martinez in Columbia County follow I-20 eastbound or Washington Road into Augusta and connect to Broad Street quickly. Providers traveling from Aiken, South Carolina — just across the Savannah River on US-1 or I-20 — find downtown Augusta a natural destination without a long cross-state drive. Healthcare workers from Thomson, Waynesboro, and McDuffie County heading west on US-78 or US-1 arrive directly into the Broad Street corridor from the east. Our location serves the full CSRA clinical workforce without requiring anyone to drive to Atlanta or Columbia for AHA training.
Safety Training Seminars delivers comprehensive BLS CPR, ACLS, PALS, NRP, and First Aid training designed around real-world application and hands-on practice. Our courses focus on essential life-saving techniques including high-quality CPR, AED operation, airway management, rhythm interpretation, basic pharmacology, and coordinated team response. Participants gain practical experience with proven algorithms and emergency protocols, helping them respond quickly and confidently in critical situations.
We’re located at 823 Broad Street, 2nd Floor, Augusta, GA 30901 — right on Augusta’s historic Broad Street, one of the widest and most recognizable main streets in the American Southeast, in the heart of the downtown professional and commercial district. From I-20 eastbound, take Exit 196 toward US-25 and follow it north into Augusta, then turn right on Broad Street heading east toward downtown. From I-20 westbound, take Exit 200 toward Washington Road and follow the surface streets southwest to Broad Street. The building sits along the Broad Street corridor between 8th and 9th Streets, within a short drive of AU Medical Center on Laney-Walker Boulevard and close to the Augusta Common plaza. Street parking is available along Broad Street and on surrounding blocks.
Augusta’s position as the CSRA’s healthcare anchor makes our Broad Street training center the most strategically located AHA training option across a region that spans two states and multiple counties. Providers from Columbia County, Aiken County across the river in South Carolina, Burke County, McDuffie County, and the smaller healthcare communities of Waynesboro and Wrens all find downtown Augusta a practical training destination without traveling to a major metro. Safety Training Seminars is the number one choice for BLS CPR, ACLS, PALS, and First Aid courses in Downtown Augusta, GA — delivering clinical quality and same-day eCard issuance for the entire CSRA healthcare workforce from one well-positioned location.

The BLS CPR, ACLS & PALS Course at our Downtown Augusta location delivers the full AHA healthcare provider curriculum through a hands-on approach that builds the kind of skill that performs under real clinical pressure. Students practice adult, child, and infant CPR — working through hand placement, compression depth and rate, and the full chest recoil that AHA’s evidence-based guidelines require. AED training is fully applied and practical: activating the device, placing pads correctly across different patient types, and integrating shock delivery into a continuous resuscitation sequence without disrupting team coordination. Choking relief is practiced for conscious and unconscious patients at every age. Two-rescuer CPR — including role transitions and verbal communication during active compressions — closes out a curriculum that directly reflects the team emergency response demands of AU Medical Center and Doctors Hospital of Augusta.
AU Medical Center’s status as the CSRA’s primary tertiary referral hospital means it receives patients transferred from across a wide geographic region — many of whom arrive with limited pre-hospital intervention due to the rural distances involved. When those patients reach the facility, the clinical team’s response has to be immediate, coordinated, and protocol-precise. The Charlie Norwood VA Medical Center manages a veteran population with high rates of cardiovascular disease, where cardiac emergencies require ACLS-fluent providers capable of moving through assessment and treatment algorithms without hesitation. For providers at these facilities and throughout Augusta’s expanding outpatient network, Safety Training Seminars keeps emergency skills current — not just documented.
AU Health, HCA Healthcare’s Doctors Hospital network, the Charlie Norwood VA, and the full range of Richmond County and CSRA healthcare employers follow the AHA’s two-year renewal cycle for BLS CPR, ACLS, and PALS. The Medical College of Georgia tracks certification compliance for students in clinical rotations, and Augusta University’s College of Nursing maintains similar requirements for nursing students entering hospital placements. A lapsed eCard can hold up a clinical rotation assignment, delay a VA employment start date, or surface during an accreditation review at exactly the wrong moment. Safety Training Seminars resolves that cleanly — attend the skills session at our Broad Street CPR Verification Station™ learning center and walk out with your updated AHA Course Completion eCard the same day.
When an AU Health position opens with a Monday start date that won’t move, or a MCG clinical rotation requires your documentation by end of week, Safety Training Seminars delivers without delay. We offer same-day BLS CPR certification for Downtown Augusta and CSRA providers who need their AHA eCard immediately. Finish the HeartCode® online module on your own schedule, attend the skills check at our 823 Broad Street location, and walk out with an official AHA digital certification card recognized by every Georgia and South Carolina healthcare employer and valid at facilities nationwide. It’s the most efficient certification path in the entire Central Savannah River Area.
Earning BLS certification through Safety Training Seminars in Augusta is a straightforward three-step process with no unnecessary complexity.
Step 1 — Online Module: Complete the AHA HeartCode course at your own pace — from a home in Summerville, a study room on the AU campus, or a break room at AU Medical Center between rotations. No upfront classroom time required.
Step 2 — Skills Session: Visit our 823 Broad Street location for a focused, hands-on competency check with an experienced AHA instructor covering compression technique, AED use, airway management, and two-rescuer coordination in a professional, time-efficient session.
Step 3 — Receive Your eCard: Upon successful course completion, your official AHA Course Completion eCard is issued the same day — accepted at AU Health, Doctors Hospital, the Charlie Norwood VA, and healthcare facilities across Georgia, South Carolina, and nationwide.
Registered nurses at AU Medical Center and Doctors Hospital, paramedics and EMTs with Richmond County EMS and Augusta Fire, Charlie Norwood VA clinical staff, Children’s Hospital of Georgia nursing teams, MCG medical students in clinical placements, dental hygienists and assistants throughout Augusta’s Broad Street and Wheeler Road professional corridors, medical assistants at community health centers serving the Laney-Walker and Bethlehem neighborhoods, and travel nurses arriving for CSRA assignments all return to Safety Training Seminars because the standard is consistent and the eCard arrives before they leave the building. In a city as tightly networked as Augusta’s medical community, that reliability builds a reputation that holds.
BLS CPR, ACLS, and PALS training serves the complete professional range of Augusta’s healthcare and allied health community. Physicians and advanced practice providers at AU Health and the VA, respiratory therapists, physical and occupational therapists, surgical technologists, pharmacy technicians in clinical settings, school nurses within Richmond County Schools, social workers in hospital and community health placements, public health professionals at the Augusta University School of Public Health, corporate health staff at Fort Eisenhower’s medical support facilities, and caregivers in Augusta’s assisted living and home health network all benefit from current AHA certification. The diversity of Augusta’s clinical workforce reflects the breadth of the mission Safety Training Seminars was built to serve.
Augusta’s healthcare providers who stay current on their certification cycle are the ones who move without friction when opportunity arrives at AU Health or a CSRA clinic. Safety Training Seminars makes staying current simple: choose your BLS, ACLS, or PALS course, select a session that works around your schedule, and enroll in minutes.

BLS CPR is the AHA’s clinical-level standard for healthcare providers and includes two-rescuer protocols, bag-mask ventilation, and team communication dynamics not included in community CPR courses designed for the general public. AU Health, Doctors Hospital, the VA, and every Richmond County clinical employer requiring CPR documentation for direct patient care staff require BLS specifically — not a community awareness class.
Yes. We coordinate group certification sessions for clinical departments, specialty practices, and healthcare organizations throughout Richmond County and the broader CSRA region. Group enrollment works well for departments managing simultaneous renewal deadlines or new facility compliance timelines ahead of a Joint Commission survey. Contact us with your group size, preferred course, and target dates — we’ll get every AHA Course Completion eCard issued the same day.
