Did you know that in 1990 cardiac arrest survival rates were 10%, and now survival from cardiac arrest can be as high as 70%. Reaching 70% requires early access to help; immediate CPR, and defibrillation within first 5 minutes. CPR is easy, safe, and saves lives!!
CPR classes periodically throughout the year as demand dictates, a minimum of 5 people are needed for a class. Generally class times are four (4) hours and students should dress comfortably. CPR classes are $30 per student if you wish to add first aid please plan on an additional two (2) hours and $15 for a total of six (6) hours and $45.00.
Our employees use the American Heart Association (AHA) curriculum. The specific course is based on the needs of the students. Below is a list of courses offered. Please click the links for additional information.
Friends & Family CPR ($25 per student)
*If you choose to take these courses through the AHA we can schedule the practical exam here on an individual basis.
