We are proud to provide Oshtemo residents and businesses with some hands-on training.

CPR - Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation 

CPR is a vital skill we believe everyone should learn and practice. We are proud to say Kalamazoo County has had the 2nd best survival rate of witnessed cardiac arrests in the entire nation. While we continue to aim for that #1 spot, realistically the best way to improve anyone's survivability is start CPR before Fire and EMS arrive. 

How does this happen? You! We can teach you when and how to do CPR with just your hands. The public isn't expected to do "mouth-to-mouth" anymore, so if you have hand or two, and 30 minutes free, we can teach you the skills needed to help your friends, neighbors and loved ones. 

We offer a FREE, quick and easy "hands-only, non-certified" class to any resident or business in Oshtemo. 

Soon, we will also offer certified CPR trainings for a nominal fee. 

AED - Automated External Defibrillation

Just as important as CPR, is knowing how to use an AED on someone. We can teach the do's and don'ts of AED use and let you practice with a trainer. Often, we teach this at the same time as CPR but can teach it alone. 

First Aid and Stop-the-Bleed

Along with the FREE non-certified CPR, we can provide a FREE First Aid class. Learn the basics of recognizing medical and environmental emergencies as well as the critical skill of Stop-the-Bleed, a course focused on stopping severe bleeds in a rapid manner. 

Fire Extinguishers

At home or in the workplace, fire extinguishers should be readily available to aid you in your escape from a fire. Extinguishers are very effective of stopping the spread of small fires and helping you escape the building but are no good if someone doesn't know how to use them. Our class takes about 15 minutes for the basics and another 15 if we are able to provide a demonstration (specific conditions required).
