American Red Cross BLS CPR & AED Classes in Las Vegas, NV

Las Vegas’s Best CPR Classes

Emergencies rarely come with a warning—and they often involve someone you know. Our CPR classes teach you how to recognize cardiac arrest, respond to choking, and provide life-saving care until medical help arrives. Through online coursework and hands-on skills practice, you can gain the knowledge and skills to make a real difference in critical situations.

Most cardiac arrests occur at home, not in hospitals. That’s why being trained matters. From sudden heart attacks to unexpected injuries, these moments demand calm, informed action. With our CPR classes, you’ll get hands-on practice in BLS, CPR, and AED techniques so you’re fully prepared to step in when it matters most.

What is CPR?

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is a life-saving technique used when someone’s heart stops beating or they stop breathing. It involves chest compressions and rescue breaths to keep blood and oxygen flowing until emergency responders arrive. In our CPR classes in Las Vegas, you’ll learn how to perform CPR on adults, children, and infants, and how to use an AED to restore a normal heart rhythm during cardiac arrest.
