Good evening everyone. A little sneak peek of what is coming this summer. This is strictly a survey. Reach out if you would like to get recertification completed.

Community CPR & First Aid Training Interest Survey!

I am an American Heart Association (AHA) CPR and First Aid Instructor and am exploring the possibility of offering community CPR and First Aid classes this July. Class dates will be determined based on community interest. If enough people express interest between June 1 and June 14, I will schedule one or more classes for July.

This training is ideal for anyone interested in learning life-saving CPR and First Aid skills. I also offer CPR and First Aid certification courses for daycare providers, teachers, babysitters, and others who are required to meet the State of Connecticut training requirements.

Course Cost: To be determined. My goal is to keep training affordable and accessible for all participants.

About the Instructor:

* Connecticut EMT with 24 years of experience
* Majority of EMS service spent in the City of Hartford
* American Heart Association Instructor since 2012
* 100% student pass rate in CPR and First Aid courses

I take pride in supporting my students beyond the classroom. After course completion, I remain available to answer questions and provide complimentary refresher sessions for former students whose certification cards are still valid and who would like additional practice before renewal.

If you are interested in attending a class or would like additional information, please feel free to contact me. I will respond as quickly as possible.

You can also visit my page below to learn more about my training programs and stay updated on upcoming classes.

Thank you for your interest, and I look forward to helping our community become better prepared to respond in an emergency.
