Newnan CPR February Free CPR courses

February Free CPR Courses – All South Atlanta areas

February Free CPR courses

To celebrate American Heart Month (that’s the entire month of February,   http://bit.ly/2knQZTQ ),  Newnan CPR is again offering February Free CPR courses, non-certification, to our communities.   In 15 locations, Newnan CPR teaches February Free CPR courses dates/times during the month.   We’ll teach the American Heart Association Family & Friends CPR course for free (non-certification)  this month (I’ve seen people in the Atlanta area charging $40 for this non-certification training).  Family & Friends is not a certification course, which means you don’t get a certification card at the end of the course.

 

IF you’re required to have a CPR certification card to keep your job, obtain a job, or get into EMT or nursing school, we’re sorry, Heartsaver CPR certification cardbut you’ll have to complete a Heartsaver course (generally for workplace responders or lay responders), or a BLS Provider course (http://bit.ly/2jS2WQD ).   BLS course is for nurses, EMT’s, paramedics, dental assistants, radiologic techs, dental hygienists BLS for Healthcare Providers CPR – clinicians daeling with patients.  Our certification courses are $40 for workplace/lay responder, and $50 for Healthcare Providers (official AHA BLS Provider course).   We are an authorized AHA training site, so we do print a card at the end of your Heartsaver course or BLS Provider courses.

 

Why would we teach February Free CPR courses (non-certification) training?  Is it useful if students don’t walk logo-Newnan CPR out with a certification card in their wallet?   Well, the card in your wallet doesn’t save someone – the knowledge and skills you learn and practice in a CPR course are what provides you with the psychomotor skill and confidence to perform CPR on your loved one, or co-worker.  There’s only 3 ways you can help someone that suffers cardiac arrest.  Call 911, perform CPR,  and use a defibillator (AED)  – that’s it.  ZOLL AED Plus for February Free CPR coursesCardiac arrest is a time-critical health problem.  The victim needs CPR done within 6 minutes and AED applied within 8 minutes to have a good chance to survive with normal neurological function.  We have the greatest EMS system in the world – however, they only come after we call them, and that’s usually 7 1/2 to 8 1/2 minutes away.

 

Family & Friends CPR is a non-certification course, but it teaches the life-saving skills of adult Hands-only CPR, and CPR on children and infants with breaths.  Also how to use an AED, and how to Learn CPR during February Free CPR courseshelp a choking victim.  It only takes 1 1/2 hours, about 60% less than the certification courses.  Come join us and learn to save a life.  Over 75% of cardiac arrests happen in the home – so you’ll likely be learning a skill to save a family member or close friend.  Can you use these skills to save a stranger?  Absoluteley, and they won’t ask to see your certification card.

Non-certification AHA Schedule of February Free CPR courses Family & Friends training courses will be held all over south Atlanta area during February, by Newnan CPR.  Please tell your friends.   (Oh, no certification card for this training).
