Grant Overview
Indiana's Risk Compliance Barriers for Community CPR Programs
Indiana's county-level cardiac arrest survival rates average 7.2 percent below the national mean, with the largest shortfalls recorded in the 34 counties designated as medically underserved by the Health Resources and Services Administration. These counties contain higher proportions of adults over age 65 and limited access to 911 centers with pre-arrival instruction capability.
Risk compliance requirements focus on documented training completion rates rather than equipment alone. Indiana code mandates that any public CPR program operating outside licensed healthcare facilities must maintain instructor-to-trainee ratios of 1:6 and retain attendance records for seven years. Many rural volunteer fire departments lack the administrative staff to meet these record-keeping standards.
Programs must therefore demonstrate that requested manikins, AED trainers, and digital tracking software will be paired with existing county health department oversight. Standalone department applications are rejected if they cannot produce a signed memorandum of understanding with the local health officer.
Indiana's High-Risk Population Targeting Criteria
Applications must cite Indiana Department of Health vital statistics showing cardiac arrest incidence per 100,000 residents in the target zip codes. Priority is given to counties where the percentage of residents aged 65 and older exceeds 19 percent and where the nearest hospital with 24-hour cath-lab capability is more than 45 miles away. Counties adjacent to Indianapolis or Gary receive lower priority because they already meet minimum hospital access benchmarks.
Unlike Ohio or Michigan programs that permit statewide nonprofit intermediaries, Indiana requires that the fiscal agent be a county government or township fire department. This restriction prevents dilution of funds across non-targeted urban centers.
Compliance Documentation Standards
Each application must attach the county health officer's written verification that training data will be entered into the state's mandated EMS registry within 30 days of course completion. Non-compliance triggers recapture of equipment funds.
