CPR/First Aid

This American Red Cross CPR and First Aid Certification Course provides essential life-saving
skills for handling medical emergencies with confidence. Participants will learn how to
recognize and respond to cardiac and breathing emergencies, perform high-quality CPR, use an

Through hands-on practice and expert instruction, students will develop the skills needed to
assess situations quickly, administer care effectively, and stay calm under pressure. This course
is ideal for workplaces, caregivers, educators, and anyone who wants to be prepared to act in
an emergency.
