To increase survival rates among cardiac arrest victims, Ashland Fire & Rescue is offering CPR classes accredited by The American Heart Association. Classes are available monthly to the general public and healthcare professionals. Onsite business and private/group classes are also available by scheduling in advance.

Statistics indicate less than one-third of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest victims receive bystander CPR. Effective bystander CPR, provided immediately after sudden cardiac arrest, can double or triple a victim’s chance of survival.
