The equipment
What the Go Kit is, and how it works
A complete CPR skills station that folds into a wheeled case. We bring it to your site, so the one part of certification that has to happen in person happens where your team already is.
The short version.
The Go Kit is a portable RQI simulation station — the same skills-verification equipment used inside hospitals, in a case that travels.
It opens on a conference table, a break-room floor, a site trailer or a studio mat, and it runs entirely off its own equipment. No power, no projector, no room booking, no classroom.
Everything on it is a training manikin. Nothing on it is a medical device.
What's inside
| Component | What it's for |
|---|---|
| Adult manikin | Adult compressions and ventilation, in a padded tray with rigid side panels |
| Infant manikin | Infant compressions and choking relief, on its own fold-out panel |
| Bag-valve masks | Adult and infant ventilation practice |
| Feedback tablet | Live compression rate and depth, shown while you work |
| Grey mat | Unfolds from the case; the working surface for floor sessions |
| Accessory pouch | Cables, one-way valves and consumables |
| Wheeled hard case | Everything above, packed to travel |
The infant manikin is the part most often skipped elsewhere. Centres serving infants and toddlers practise on equipment sized for infants, not on a smaller version of an adult.
How a session actually runs
- 01
Your staff finish the coursework first.
Official AHA-aligned material, online, at their own pace, between shifts. Nothing about this part needs us in the room.
- 02
We bring the kit to you.
It sets up in the space you already have. Clear floor or table space about the size of a conference table is enough.
- 03
Each person is checked off individually.
One at a time, typically 15 to 25 minutes for BLS. People step away, get checked off, and go back to work — there's no class for the whole team to sit through.
- 04
The eCard is issued on the spot.
Nationally recognized, in the person's own name, as soon as they pass.
Why the tablet matters more than it looks
In a conventional class, "you passed" is one instructor's judgment of a room full of people.
On the Go Kit, compression rate and depth are measured live while the person works. They see their own numbers. So do we.
That matters for two reasons that have nothing to do with paperwork. Compressions that are too shallow or too fast are among the most common failures in real resuscitation, and neither is visible to the naked eye. And a measured check-off leaves a per-person result rather than a note that a class happened in March.
This is what RQI — Resuscitation Quality Improvement — is built around: verifying competence with data instead of observation. RQI Partners is a joint venture of the American Heart Association and Laerdal Medical.
Where it can go
Anywhere with room to kneel beside a manikin. In practice that has meant conference rooms, clinic break rooms, unused exam rooms, warehouse break areas, site trailers, school multipurpose rooms, childcare staff rooms, gym studio floors and restaurant dining rooms before service.
If a visit doesn't suit — a new hire in October, someone who missed the session, a team too small to justify a trip — the same license is redeemable at any CPRCL location instead.
What it isn't
It isn't a medical device.
Every manikin on it is a training manikin.
It isn't an online course.
AHA certification requires a hands-on skills demonstration in person. The Go Kit is how that part happens without a classroom — it doesn't replace it.
It isn't equipment we sell.
We bring it, run the session, and take it away.
