Florida - The CPR School, LLC recently conducted several CPR, AED and First Aid training class for several large Florida construction and utility companies. Based in Florida, The CPR School travels to the client to perform onsite group CPR AED and First Aid training for various types of businesses. Some of these industries include construction, building materials / supplies, HVAC contractors, Road Construction and Paving, Electrical Contractors / Electricians and Plumbing Contractors / Plumbers and utility companies.
Keith Murray, the owner of The CPR School, LLC is also the lead instructor. Keith indicates that they try to customize their classes to fit the industry. For example, if they are teaching a class for contractors they will spend more time talking about injuries from cuts, burns, falls as well as heat related emergencies. When we teach for a daycare or school we spend more time on pediatric emergencies such as choking, poisoning and allergic reactions.
