Do you offer American Red Cross or American Heart Association training?
Life Essentials, LLC is an American Heart Association training site. I teach using only American Heart Association CPR and First Aid curriculum. Upon completion of one of my courses, you will receive an American Heart Association CPR and/or First Aid certificate.
What is the American Heart Association's BLS certification?
BLS stands for Basic Life Support and is the AHA course for Healthcare Providers. BLS for Providers certification is required by licensed providers that work in a healthcare facility or a prehospital facility. If you are unsure which certification you need, consult with your employer.

Most of the community classes I offer are held in Riverton, WY. However, I am willing to travel to the surrounding area (including but not limited to Lander, Thermopolis, Dubois, Shoshoni, Ft. Washakie, Arapahoe). If you are interested in hosting or attending a class, please contact me to make arrangements.
