CPR

In any accredited CPR training class, you will learn the most up-to-date guidelines for performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation or CPR. Your course will teach you the proper way to perform CPR skills such as chest compressions and rescue breathing. Depending on the course, you may learn how to perform adult, child, and infant CPR, or focus specifically on adult CPR.

Periodically, the American Heart Association updates its CPR guidelines, so it is always important to keep your certification fresh.

Dale Cheatham will be teaching this course. The certification course is condensed into a 2 hour class providing hands on instruction in adult, child, infant CPR and Basic First Aid and AED (Automated External Defibrillator). Class meets OSHA regulations and American Heart Association Standards. All necessary materials will be provided. Each student will receive a CPR Certification card at the end of the course.

More Information on your course:

Your course materials will include instructions on how to correctly identify the signs of cardiac arrest. According to the American Heart Association, each year more than 350,000 Americans die of cardiac arrest. The AHA explains that “If performed immediately, CPR can double or triple the chance of survival from an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.”

The benefits of recognizing cardiac arrest and being able to act immediately are very clear. That’s why this material is a key element in CPR certification classes.

You will learn how to help someone who is choking. From identifying the signs of choking, to the proper method of performing the Heimlich Maneuver when it’s appropriate, your CPR class will help you save lives.
