Heartsaver Adult/Child/Infant CPR & Defibrillation

The sooner that CPR is started and an AED (defibrillator) is applied to a patient in cardiac arrest, the greater their chances for survival! You are more likely to do CPR on someone that you know than on a stranger. 

The skills learned in this course will help you recognize cardiac arrest, get emergency care on the way quickly and help a person until EMS arrives. The cost of the class is $35.00 per person to cover the Corps costs. 

Upcoming classes will be held on: 

  • Sunday, February 5 CPR 10 AM
  • Saturday, May 20 CPR 10 AM
  • Sunday, August 13 CPR 10 AM


First Aid Classes

This course covers first aid basics for the most common first aid emergencies, including how to recognize them, how to call for help, and how to perform lifesaving skills.

  • Sunday, May 21 First Aid 10 AM
  • Sunday, Nov. 12 First Aid 10 AM
