Where To Learn CPR in San Jose
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or CPR, is a rescue technique used to pump blood to the heart to keep a person alive until medical help arrives. CPR can also involve using breathing techniques to provide oxygen to the lungs. CPR saves millions of lives each year, and anyone can learn the simple techniques. A number of San Jose organizations provide CPR training to help educate people about this important, life-saving method.
Certification and Non-Certification
CPR training may be certified on non-certified. Choosing which type of training you should get depends upon what you intend to do with the knowledge. Some jobs require official certification in CPR. These include emergency medical technicians, nurses and other healthcare workers. Some jobs require that you have knowledge of CPR, though official certification is not necessary. In addition, basic CPR training may be for use on adults. Training for CPR on children and infants is considered additional training that may or may not be offered. CPR training may also include dealing with choking problems and the use of common defibrillator equipment found in restaurants and other public facilities. Most instructional programs offer a card to indicate that you have completed certain types of CPR training.
American Red Cross
The American Red Cross offers a number of first aid and CPR training classes as part of their emergency-preparedness work in local communities. These classes may include safety training for babysitters, caregivers, lifeguards and to become an instructor in these classes. The CPR courses may cover training in both adult and infant rescue. Certification generally follows a written test. You can contact your local division of the American Red Cross for their class schedules that run throughout the year.
Hospitals
As a public service to the community, area hospitals often provide health information to the community. These may include a variety of classes in infant care, pregnancy classes and lifestyle changes after certain illnesses. Some hospitals also provide first aid and CPR training. Training in a hospital setting ensures the use of medically approved techniques so that you will be able to administer the proper technique when needed.
Fire Stations
Personnel at local fire stations may participate in community safety programs such as CPR training to spread the word on this valuable life-saving technique. These programs are often organized by the American Heart Association and have the firefighters who have used the technique in their jobs as teachers. The firefighters can often provide interesting and valuable advice on real-life situations in which CPR is done. Generally, these programs are certified as “community level training,” as opposed to the type that is given to medical personnel.
Community Centers
Many community centers around the country teach CPR to ensure that as many people as possible can help save lives during emergency situations. Often, these classes are held at community pools where the risk of drowning may occur. CPR can save drowning victims and can be an important skill for parents and grandparents if they have a swimming pool on their property.
Safety Products Companies
If you cannot find CPR training given by the previously mentioned groups, you may be able to attend classes that are offered by safety supply companies. These companies often hire emergency medical personnel to teach the classes. Though the classes may not qualify as “certified” training, but they can still provide valuable skills to help save lives. Ask about certification before you take the class.
Free CPR Classes
About twice a year, the American Heart Association or the American Red Cross offer free non-certified CPR training courses. They are usually called CPR Saturdays, or Sidewalk CPR and offer a chance for the public to learn the steps of CPR for no charge. These courses do not offer a certification card, so if you need the course for a work requirement, you should probably take the full class.
CPR Apps
With the invention of the smartphone, a whole new way of delivering information to people has begun. People are able to learn almost anything via their cell phone connection to the internet. Information on how to do CPR via cell phone app makes it possible for individuals to have instructions on how to apply CPR whenever it is needed. These apps can help to refresh the memory about correct CPR techniques when people are faced with an emergency situation. CPR apps are available for both Iphones and Android phones.
American Heart Association
The most widely accepted CPR certification in the San Jose area is conducted by the American Heart Association. San Jose CPR Certification conducts BLS, CPR, AED, First-aid, and ACLS courses in their comfortable classroom near downtown San Jose on Meridian Avenue.
