Recent Feedback About Our Classes

I was needing a CPR/AED class quickly for my workplace, and got signed up and registered very easily and within a weeks time!! Signed up for Tami’s class last night, she got me trained and re-certified in a 2-hour class!! Tami is great to work with, and would definitely recommend her to anyone needing trained in 1st Aid/CPR/AED for their workplace, or if just needing trained in these areas!!

I have been a mountain search & rescue volunteer as well as a chiropractor for many years so I have done many trainings and recertifications for CPR. After moving to Tennessee I needed to recert and used Vitalcpr. Tami did a great job and knows her stuff and teaches the skills in a way experienced as well as first timers will become proficient in this lifesaving technique. I highly recommend everyone learns CPR with Tami at VitalCpr!
