What class should I take?

If you are taking a class in order to meet a workplace requirement, it is important you ask your employer the exact name of the class you need.

Generally, Basic Life Support (BLS) is intended for those in the healthcare setting directly working with patients; First Aid CPR and AED is generally for work-sites, safety personnel, caregivers, school staff, and staff working in a medical setting but do not provide direct patient care, or anyone who would like training in these skills.

Will the instructor come to my location or business to teach a class?

Yes! If you are a group or business, we can come to your location. We will bring our equipment and run the class at your location for your convenience.
