CPR & First Aid Classes |
|
The Sauk Prairie Ambulance Association has made a commitment to providing quality emergency care to the community they serve. As an extension of that commitment, the Association has developed a team of dedicated CPR, BLS and First Aid instructors who are trained and certified to teach basic life support skills to community members and other healthcare professionals. It is the hope of the Association that by teaching these skills to others, precious minutes can be saved between the time an emergency occurs and the arrival of advanced life support resources.
The Association’s team of instructors are all licensed Emergency Medical Technicians with many years of field experience. All instructors are certified by the American Heart Association.
Thank you for taking the time to consider learning these valuable skills. Our course schedules and outlines are listed below. Please feel free to contact us at any time for more information. Classes can be set up on a flexible basis.
