American Red Cross BLS CPR & AED Classes with Infant CPR in CPR Classes Louisville, KY

CPR Classes Louisville’s Best Infant CPR Classes

Learning CPR helps prepare you to take fast, appropriate action when someone experiences a medical emergency. During our infant CPR course, you’ll learn how to identify signs of distress, assist during choking emergencies, recognize unresponsiveness, and use CPR, BLS, and AED skills appropriate for the age of the person requiring care.

With hands-on training, you’ll build the knowledge and confidence to provide assistance during emergencies involving infants, children, and adults.

Recognizing the importance of CPR begins with understanding potential risks:

• Thousands of children are affected by cardiac arrest each year.
• Infants can be particularly vulnerable to breathing emergencies, including suffocation and sleep-related incidents.
• Respiratory problems and airway obstructions can contribute to pediatric cardiac emergencies.

CPR may also be necessary in emergencies involving near-drowning, head trauma, smoke inhalation, poisoning, and electrical injuries.

What is CPR?

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is a lifesaving emergency technique that uses chest compressions and rescue breathing to support blood circulation and oxygen delivery when someone experiences cardiac arrest or stops breathing normally. Infant CPR should only be performed on babies who are unresponsive and not breathing normally.
