Attending American Red Cross hands-on training courses under the supervision of our qualified instructors is the best way to obtain the skills and confidence needed to respond to an emergency. The certification courses are taken from the popular First Aid/CPR/AED for the Workplace Program.  This program boasts a participant’s workbook and laminated CPR/AED and First Aid skill cards, which include full-color images and easy-to-read text that will walk you step by step through a variety of lifesaving skills. The skill cards will also serve as an excellent refresher and reference tool after training is complete.
