OK, you stocked up on batteries, water and non perishable food itmes but what else do you need to prepare for a natural disaster.  What if I told you that you could take a class and after spending a few hours learning new things and having fun you could save a loved one or a co-workers life?  What if this same class could save someone’s life during a natural disaster such as a hurricane or tornado?  Would you sign up for the class?  If the answer is yes then our CPR, First Aid and AED classes are the perfect classes for you.

Question:  Can you help me prepare for natural disasters like hurricanes?
Answer:  Yes.  Much of the first aid portion of our class relates to medical emergencies that can happen while preparing for a hurricane, during the actual hurricane and after the hurricane during clean up.  For more information please call us at 561-762-0500 or visit our web site www.TheCPRSchool.com

Question:  Who should take this class?
Answer:  Anyone and everyone that lives in a hurricane prone area.  In fact, anyone that lives in an area where hurricanes and/or other natural disasters can occur.  This website is focused on Hurricanes but much of the same information could hold true for other disasters such as tornados, snow storms, earthquakes, and even acts of terrorism.

Question:  How long is the class?
Answer:  Class times vary from several hours to a full day depending on the size of the group and what level of training your group requires.  We can work with you to design a class that is right for you and your group.

DefibrillatorQuestion:  What is an AED and do I need one?
Answer:  An Automated External Defibrillator or AED is a portable electronic device that automatically diagnoses the potentially life threatening cardiac arrhythmias of ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia in a patient.  The AED is able to treat the patient by application of electrical therapy which stops the arrhythmia, allowing the heart to re-establish an effective rhythm.  AEDs are designed to be simple so that anyone can use one.  Proper use of an AEDs is taught in our CPR first aid classes.

AED Medtronic Physio ControlQuestion:  Can I schedule a private class?
Answer:  Yes, we can arrange private classes.  Often people such as public figures, celebrities, and busy executives prefer a more private one on one setting.  We can also provide one on one renewal classes.  Call to arrange individual training.  Call and ask about our One-On-One Certification process.
