CPR/First Aid/AED & Basic Life Support Training
Class Description
The Hands-Only CPR class focuses teaching how to give compression only CPR when minutes matter. Many people who survive a cardiac emergency are helped by a bystander. In this class, you can learn how to perform Hands-Only CPR – so that you can help deliver life-saving care until professional responders arrive.
This class is instructor led and no other classes or trainings are required.
PLEASE NOTE: The Hands-Only CPR class is not OSHA aproved and may not be accepted by employers or other institutions. Please refer to our Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED Class or Basic Life Support For Healthcare Providers Class.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between American Red Cross CPR and American Heart Association (AHA) CPR?
Both trainings are very similar since they are both based on the 2010 International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC) Science with Treatment Recommendations (CoSTR). Differences exist because The Red Cross Scientific Advisory Council uses CoSTR to understand the science independent of the AHA.
