Find the Best CPR Class for You!

You may find yourself needing a CPR class, either now or in the near future.  Getting certified in CPR seems like a daunting task. Also, you’ve got to make time to get this done, find a class, get registered… it just seems like a lot of work.

Well, we are here tAHA Training Center Logoo help. ProAction Emergency Services Institute is one of El Paso’s largest American Heart Association training centers. We offer BLS for Healthcare Providers, Heartsaver CPR, First Aid Classes, and a variety of other options. So, if you are taking CPR to rank for nursing school or if your job requires BLS certification, we have options for you.

We offer a student to manikin ratio of 1 to 1. Accordingly, this means you get your own manikin and do not have to share with others. Our equipment is state of the art, with CPR feedback meters. Studies have also shown that feedback devices help you achieve mastery of critical CPR skills and shorten the time to demonstrate competence. Our manikins provide visual feedback your chest compressions rate, depth, and recoil.

Which class should you take?

 

  1. Face-to-face, instructor-led CPR class: If you are a traditional learner, you can register for our traditional CPR classes. We offerInstructor demonstrating CPR on a manikin classes on weekdays, weekends, and evenings. You can find our entire schedule by clicking here.
  2. Online: We offer AHA CPR classes using a blended learning model. You can take the classroom portion online, from the comfort of your own home. Then, once you have finished the online portion, give us a call to schedule your skills assessment, which takes just about an hour to complete. Once you finish your hands-on portion, we will then issue your AHA course completion certificate. This certification is exactly the same as if you had taken a traditional course.   It is important to know that most schools and employers will not accept a CPR card that does not require a skills assessment.

We also offer first aid courses, EMT programs, and many other courses for medical professionals and first responders. Give us a call at 915-532-2771 or visit www.pro-action.org to learn more.

Learn Two Steps to Save a Life with Hands-Only CPR.

/in /by

Join a Nation of Heartsavers on June 1-7 for National CPR and AED Awareness Week.

Did you know that 70 percent of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests happen in homes? Statistically speaking, if you are called upon in an emergency, you will most likely be trying to save the life of someone you love: a parent, a sibling, or a friend.

CPR increases a person’s chance of survival by double or even triple. Consequently, bystanders play an integral part in increasing survival from cardiac arrest. Because of this, we are asking you to please take 90 seconds of your day to learn the lifesaving skills of Hands-Only CPR. We are pleased to support the American Heart Association and its important mission to increase survival from cardiac arrest.

According to the CDC, heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, with over 600,000 deaths each year. Promptly and adequately performed CPR can dramatically improve someone’s chance of survival. A leading cause of death in children ages 4 and under is drowning. CPR certification for parents and childcare providers can help to decrease the loss of life.

In just 90 seconds, you can learn the two simple steps to Hands-Only CPR. Share these Hands-Only CPR resources with your family, friends, co-workers, and your community.

Please watch the video any day June 1-7. Then, share this important link with family and friends and tag us on your posts on Facebook, (@AHACPR) and Twitter (@HeartCPR) using the hashtag, #CPRWithHeart. We would like 100% student participation.

For more comprehensive training, you can find our CPR, First Aid, AED, and Stop the Bleed training schedule by visiting www.pro-action.org/cpr.

Thank you for joining the next Generation of Heartsavers!
