CPR / First Aid Training

Sky Valley Fire First Aid / CPR Classes

Every Second Counts: CPR Saves Lives

Immediate CPR can double or triple survival rates after cardiac arrest. When combined with early defibrillation and advanced life support, survival improves dramatically. Without intervention, nearly 90% of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests are fatal.

Join the movement. Learn CPR. Save a life.
