BLS CPR & AED Classes with Infant CPR in Los Angeles

For a parent or caregiver, any emergency with an infant can be incredibly scary. Getting CPR certified helps you understand their physical makeup and how to carefully help them through an emergency until professional help arrives.

Infants and young children typically require CPR to address a breathing issue or cardiac arrest caused by breathing issues. While we hope you never need to use your training, here are some stats on why you should be trained in infant CPR:

• In 2018, over 21,000 infants died, with Sudden Infant Death (SIDS) and suffocation being the 4th and 5th leading causes, respectively.
• 7,000+ children suffer from cardiac arrest each year.
• The most common cause of cardiac arrest in young children is respiratory failure or obstruction in the airway.

1. Prevent, spot, and respond to infant breathing and cardiac emergencies.

Having this training gives you the ability to respond with life-saving knowledge. Our instructors guarantee that you will be able to confidently utilize BLS, CPR, and AED machine skills in any circumstance.

What is CPR?

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation is a critical process that includes rescue breathing and surface chest compressions to —

1. Provide oxygen-rich blood flow to vital organs, including the brain.
2. Restore breathing until first responders arrive and give more life support.
3. Revive breathing and heartbeat after cardiac arrest, heart attack, stroke, or drowning.

Note: Only perform CPR on infants who are unconscious, unresponsive, or are not breathing independently.
