Don’t just have fun this summer, become a hero. First Aid/CPR summer programs equip you with the life-saving skills to make a real difference in an emergency. Imagine being at the each or pool with friends when someone needs help. With the knowledge and confidence you gain through earning first aid certification, you could be a first responder taking action to save someone’s life.
Why get First Aid/CPR Trained?
- Many programs run alongside swimming and diving courses, making them a convenient, valuable addition to your summer activities.
- These programs follow the trusted American Red Cross curriculum, ensuring you receive high-quality training and earn Red Cross CPR and first aid certification upon completion.
- In-person instruction and realistic simulations give you the practical skills and self-confidence to react calmly and effectively in an emergency.
You’ll learn how to respond to a range of emergencies, from common cuts and scrapes to more serious situations like head injuries and even choking. Red Cross training includes teaching you how to perform chest compressions and use an automated external defibrillator (AED), which could mean the difference between life or death for someone experiencing cardiac arrest or a breathing emergency.
These programs are more than learning first aid and CPR steps. Whether you’re planning a summer job as a camp counselor, lifeguard, or babysitter — or just want to be prepared for any situation — a First Aid/CPR summer program is a good investment. Sign up today and make a difference.
