More and more states are realizing the importance to have the young adults and graduating High School students understand how to administer CPR to help those in need in time of a cardiac arrest. At Lifesavers, Inc. we are pleased to be able to offer CPR training through High Schools throughout all 50 states.

Students trained in CPR would be ready and willing to provide CPR to sudden cardiac arrest victims. Many of these incidents take place in the home and at large sporting events. Students trained in CPR could put their skills to good use. One school in Long Island, New York, has been training students in CPR for many years. In this school alone, graduates of CPR training have saved 16 lives.

Imagine what could be accomplished if students throughout the USA were trained in CPR.
