Maryland's State Department of Education, Division of Early Childhood, requires at least one childcare teacher or director to hold current CPR and First Aid certificates appropriate to all age groups served. For K-12 schools, at least one adult besides the health services professional must be certified in First Aid and CPR during school hours and at all school-sponsored athletic events.
