What is CPR?

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is a life-saving technique used when breathing or heartbeat stops due to cardiac arrest, choking, or drowning. By performing chest compressions and rescue breaths, CPR helps maintain oxygen flow until emergency medical teams arrive. Quick and proper response can greatly improve survival chances.

In our Irvine CPR training, you’ll gain hands-on experience in how to:

• Perform CPR on adults, children, and infants
• Use an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) to restore normal heart rhythm
• Stay calm and take control in high-pressure emergency situations
