About Us:

Picture

Based in Wilmington, Delaware - DèjáVu Safety Solutions is a 501c3 non-profit charitable organization who’s mission is:

“Improving survival from sudden cardiac arrest by educating the community on the importance and simplicity of early bystander CPR and public access defibrillation (AEDs).”

We started in 2016 providing full service, affordable, on-site training and certification in CPR, AED First Aid and more.  As we focused more on the science and data behind sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) survival we decided that our passion for community education and impacting the willingness of bystanders to participate in providing CPR and AED treatment would be better served as a nonprofit organization.
​
We have all been learners ourselves and are guided by the knowledge that great instruction (and instructors) lead to increased retention of the materials being presented and better satisfaction with the time spent in class. Our instructors are all current or past healthcare professionals with decades of experience in EMS and hospital settings.

DèjáVu Safety Solutions is an American Safety & Health Institute authorized Training Center, an Emergency Care & Safety Institute approved Education Center, and we are able to offer all ​American Heart Association ECC training programs.
