The Demand for Safe work environments has arrived with increasing Legal responsibilities. In response to these obligations, Rockford Ambulance is offering Adult CPR and AED (Automated External Defibrillator) training. These courses follow American Heart Association guidelines. AEDs have brought rapid intervention to cardiac arrest victims, providing real opportunity for patient recovery. Also offered is First Aid Training. These condensed, yet interactive courses cover topics from Trauma (Bleeding, Burns, & Fractures) to Sudden Illnesses (Medical and Environmental). Combined CPR and First Aid training classes are available on location.

Our CPR and First Aid courses are regularly taught by ambulance & fire department personnel with REAL experiences. Since actual CPR is rarely performed, Rockford Ambulance instructors will emphasize key points surrounding the Initial Care of the critically ill and injured patients you may encounter. Our instructors are equipped to answer questions that may go beyond the core requirements of the courses. Discussion is encouraged.

The process of setting up the courses has been simplified to facilitate efficiency. Materials are included. “Out-of-Area” locations* require a nominal site fee for the instructor. As indicated by previous participants and organizations, we believe the educational value of our programs has and will be proven.
