It is important that every adult, especially those who care for your children, be skilled in CPR and First Aid Training. Despite these skills being after-the-fact, emergency management techniques, they remain critical skills to provide your loved ones with a chance at survival should the unthinkable happen.

Reasons To Get Certified in CPR & 1st Aid...
Survival is time sensitive!
You could be the difference between life and death!
- After someone stops breathing, or the heart stops beating, he or she can survive for only 4 to 6 minutes before lack of oxygen results in brain damage or death. CPR can buy extra time for your loved one, until professional help can arrive, by artificially circulating oxygen to the brain.
- Statistics show that the earlier CPR is initiated, the greater the chance of survival. An estimated 100,000 to 200,000 lives of adults and children could be saved each year if CPR was performed within the first 5 minutes.
- Over 1.5 million heart attacks occur each year and approximately 350,000 of these victims die before ever reaching a hospital.
You could be the difference between life and death!
- Over 70% of all cardiac and breathing emergencies occur in the home when a family member is present and available to help a victim.
- Accidental injuries are the leading cause of death in children, and send over 16 million children a year to the emergency room.
- Approximately 7 million adults and children suffer from disabling injuries in their own homes and backyards each year, resulting from accidents that may require CPR. Some of the common causes of "sudden death" include: Electric Shock, Heart Attacks, Drowning, Severe Allergic Reactions, Choking, Drug Overdose, and Suffocation.
- Approximately 45% of all heart attacks occur in people under age 65.
