Cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a lifesaving technique useful in many emergencies, including heart attack or near drowning, in which someone’s breathing or heartbeat has stopped.
CPR can keep oxygenated blood flowing to the brain and other vital organs until more definitive medical treatment can restore a normal heart rhythm.
When the heart stops, the absence of oxygenated blood can cause irreparable brain damage in only a few minutes. Death will occur within eight to 10 minutes. Time is critical when you’re helping an unconscious person who isn’t breathing.

Our program teaches the principles of basic life support for adults, children, and infants. It gives you the latest guidelines for CPR and emergency cardiac care, starting with how to assess the scene of an emergency and take stock of the victim’s condition. The course details how to perform one-rescuer CPR and rescue breathing, and how to manage choking in a conscious person. It also addresses infection control.
Nearly every two minutes, someone dies of sudden cardiac arrest. Automated external defibrillation (AED) used in conjunction with CPR could save a quarter of these lives. AED devices are showing up everywhere from industrial settings to shopping malls, and the demand for training is rising.
The AED portion of the program teaches students how to use this lifesaving device. It also details key operating characteristics and shows you proper precautions and maintenance techniques. It explains how AEDs work and why they’re a critical part of emergency cardiac care.
