NewLife CPR
CPR sounds boring! We promise you will have FUN in our classes! We feel if you enjoy your class, you will retain the information easier. We offer a LIFE SKILL that applies to EVERYONE.  In Yavapai County, we had over 100 cardiac arrests last year. Over 90 were IN THE HOME. We need to realize WHO you can provide CPR to. It is normally, NOT A STRANGER.... it is a LOVED ONE. Learn how to perform CPR --  YOU  can make a difference!

We offer Basic CPR and First Aid training to all individuals/or businesses with licensures in the State of Arizona. We offer the American Heart Association BLS class for the Medical Level and we have the Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) and Pediatric Life Support (PALS) for the Medical Teams.

We also support our community in assistance with AEDs (Defibrillators) by purchasing the equipment or supporting by purchasing expired Pads or Batteries. WE are a full service Business.
AEDs save lives! CPR keeps the Brain alive!
