CPR & AED
CPR, or cardiopulmonary resuscitation, is an essential life-saving technique that involves chest compressions and rescue breaths to restore blood circulation and oxygenation in a person experiencing cardiac arrest. It is crucial because it buys time for the patient until advanced medical help arrives. Our Red Cross Certified courses offer flexible learning options, including blended learning with online modules and in-person skills check-offs, fully online courses, or traditional in-person classes, allowing you to choose the format that best fits your lifestyle and learning preferences.
