The YMCA of Central Texas’s CPR & First Aid Certification course will prepare you to recognize and care for breathing and cardiac emergencies. This training teaches individuals and families to act in emergency situations and to recognize and care for life threatening respiratory and cardiac problems, sudden illness, or injuries to infants, children or adults. It also familiarizes the participant with the use and safe operation of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED). CPR and First Aid classes are taught by a certified American Red Cross instructor and participants will receive a certification good for two years upon successful completion of the course.
