What is CPR?

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is a lifesaving technique used when someone experiences cardiac arrest and is not breathing normally. By combining chest compressions with rescue breaths, CPR helps maintain blood flow and oxygen delivery until emergency medical help arrives. In our Dallas CPR classes, you’ll learn techniques for adults, children, and infants, as well as how to use an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) during a cardiac emergency.

What to Expect in Your CPR BLS Classes

CPR Dallas uses a blended learning format that combines required online coursework with an in-person skills session. You’ll begin by learning important CPR, BLS, and emergency response concepts online before applying what you’ve learned during hands-on practice.

During your in-person skills session, an experienced instructor will guide you through essential techniques such as recognizing cardiac arrest, performing effective chest compressions, providing rescue breaths, and using an AED appropriately.

You’ll practice techniques for adults, children, and infants so you can understand how CPR varies by age group. Hands-on practice, realistic scenarios, and instructor feedback will help you develop confidence using these lifesaving skills.

After completing the required online coursework and successfully completing your in-person skills evaluation and any other required assessments, you’ll receive your CPR certification documentation.

• Provide assistance to infants, children, and adults in distress
