Newnan CPR

Students love our courses - cause we want to have fun!  We will teach the knowledge and the skills, but we can have fun doing that.  This is a life-saving motor skill - students really need to learn, but a fun class is far better than a boring class.  

We always keep up with the protocol tests, and advancements in resucitation.  We don't get bored hearing cardiac arrest survival rates or methods to improve - cause we want to help save lives.  

Obviously prices can change, particuarly if the prce of AHA certification cards goes up, but we charge $40 for CPR/AED, $50 for BLS for Healthcare Providers, and $60 for First Aid/CPR/AED.  

It started when I was 5, I had an uncle die of "heart failure". At the funeral home, I heard my aunt say "I wish I had known 'mouth-to-mouth' and he might still be alive". I didn't know what that term even meant. My first training was when I was in the Boy Scouts, and I've been determined since then NOT to be someone at the funeral home saying "I wish I had known CPR, so that _________ might still be with us". Please, you don't be that person, either. It takes from 40 minutes to 3 hours of time from your life and $10-50 from your wallet. My loved ones are worth it, I think yours are, also.

Usually training at their workplace, gym or hospital for a group of employees, nursing students, etc. Often (like 6-8 times per month) we rent a facility for "Public classes", or "community training". Anyone can sign up, generally for $40-$50 per course. We can also teach at your clinic, fitness center, church, neighborhood association, nursing home, child care center, etc. Practical and fun training that may save the life of a loved one. Learn CPR - Save a Life!

For my employer, I manage the AED program and teach First Aid/CPR/AED classes for 350 or so employees. I also am responsible for the "Annual CPR/AED" drill. As a result of training and practice, we have gotten drills to less than 2 minutes from patient collapse to AED shock. That's an amazing result that indicates CPR being performed within 45 seconds from someone collapsing and AED shock within 2 minutes. Those are better times than Las Vegas casinos, that have higher than 55% survival rate. Yes, that means my office is a GREAT place to have a cardiac arrest (as if you'll get to choose the where or when).

If required by your employer/clinic/fitness center/hospital, etc. to have CPR training, then ONLY go with a national provider (American Heart, Red Cross, or NSC). If you're a Medical Professional or nursing/medical/dental student, we would ONLY recommend AHA BLS for Healthcare Providers course (from Newnan CPR, or a lot of other AHA instructors). There's nothing wrong with completing the AHA HeartCode (online) course, as long as you get an AHA skill check within 2 months. If your employer requires CPR certification, completion of an "online-only" CPR course Will NOT be recognized, cause OSHA doesn't recognize online CPR training without a hands-on practice session with a qualified instructor.

First, is this training REQUIRED for my job or school?  If so, the requirement is probably specific, like : AHA BLS for Healthcare Providers,  or "nationally recognized CPR/1st Aid Provider".  Don't waste money on a class that is not accepted by your school or ermployer.  

If you work in GA, and are a nurse, paramedic, doctor, dentist, dental assistant, or dental hygienist  - then AHA BLS for Healthcare Providers is your required course.    Your employer may require an advanced class (like PALS or ACLS), but BLS Provider is the minimum.
