2006 New York Code - Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Instruction.

 
    §  804-c.  Cardiopulmonary  resuscitation instruction. 1. Instructions
  regarding cardiopulmonary resuscitation may  be  offered  for  voluntary
  admission  as  a  part  of the health education curriculum in all senior
  high schools. In addition to the requirement that all teachers of health
  education shall be certified to teach health, persons instructing pupils
  in cardiopulmonary resuscitation shall possess valid certification by an
  agency offering such certification in the performance of cardiopulmonary
  resuscitation and in its instruction.
    2. The commissioner may prescribe regulations  governing  such  health
  education  courses  which  shall  include instruction in cardiopulmonary
  resuscitation. Such regulations shall in no event prescribe a course  of
  study  in  cardiopulmonary  resuscitation which sets forth standards for
  instruction of a lesser quality than the requirements  of  the  programs
  adopted by the American Heart Association or the American Red Cross.
    3.  School  authorities that choose to offer such course shall provide
  the needed facilities, time and place  for  the  instruction  set  forth
  herein and shall provide learning aids and curriculum resource materials
  to support such course of study.
