CPR / First Aid Training

Sky Valley Fire First Aid / CPR Classes

Every Second Counts: CPR Saves Lives

Immediate CPR can double or even triple survival rates after cardiac arrest. When combined with early defibrillation and advanced life support, survival improves dramatically. This life-saving sequence—known as the Chain of Survival—is more effective than ever thanks to updated 2025 guidelines emphasizing rapid response and community readiness.

Yet without intervention, nearly 90% of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests are fatal. That’s why public access to AEDs, dispatcher-assisted CPR, and coordinated emergency care are critical. Whether you're a bystander or a trained responder, your actions can mean the difference between life and death.

Learn CPR. Locate your nearest AED. Be ready to act.
