CPR and First Aid Training Referral
Originally Published: June 26, 1998
 
Dear Alice,

I want to get trained in CPR and First Aid before the end of June...where is the closest place I can do so?

 

Dear Reader,

In an emergency, having someone around who can assess the situation, call for help, and perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and/or first aid when necessary is often crucial. Alice commends you for wanting to gain the important knowledge to be that person.

To find out where you can take a CPR class, call your local hospital or the nearest chapter of the American Red Cross or American Heart Association. The telephone numbers can be found in your local phone book. Or, you can contact the national offices for information about your local affiliate:

American Red Cross
Attn: Public Inquiry Office
6th floor
8111 Gatehouse Road
Falls Church, VA 22042
(703) 206-7090

American Heart Association
7272 Greenville Avenue
Dallas, TX 75231
(800)-AHA-USA1 / -242-8721
(214) 373-6300
