I wanted to say how impressed I am with CPR: it works. I am a physician and Mrs. Medina teaches her classes with energy and enthusiasm. I have utilized Mrs. Medina's classes to instruct middle school students and teen volunteer programs in CPR and first aid. Her presentation is thorough, engaging, and inspiring. She comes equipped with an abundance of mannequins, defibrillators, slides, and trining material. She brings speakers who share personal stories about how CPR has had a profound impact on their lives and thoughtfully engages her classes in discussions about having the knowledge and courage to be a first responder. Most importantly, Mrs Medina shares her personal story about what led her to become a CPR instructor and for those that have attended her class, this is where the true impact of her class lies. She has a true passion for bringing CPR awareness to the community and has instituted many programs in her community to ensure that CPR and AEDs can be made available to everyone. In my line of work, I have attended many similar trainings to maintain my verification but Mrs. Medina's class has been the best I have attended. read more

Debbie recently provided an overview of the different Automated External Defibrillators (AED's) approved by the FDA.  She provided excellent insight into the various pros and cons, came from an unbiased position recognizing certain AED's may be a better choice than others (dependent on environment, use cases, etc.) and provided answers to question around liability concerns and risk.  She provided a total cost of ownership overview to help us understand the total cost of owning an AED over the  8 year life. If you are seeking an education on AED's, need to purchase AED's or program management,  I would recommend reaching out to Debbie.  Her passion to save lives and her desire to get more AED's into the consumers hands is noticeable in her unbiased position and competitive pricing. read more

I recently took the adult & pediatric AHA CPR/first-aid course with Debbie. She went at a pace that was easy to understand & made each part of the course make sense. I finished the day feeling well equipped to apply my knowledge in an emergency. I am so glad I went through Debbie & Al's program. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for this certificate. I sent their information to my church nursery director. Every life matters and you never know when you will need to give CPR or first-aid. read more

This an outstanding program and one that everyone should take. Debbie Medina is a dynamic speaker and has a heart-felt story that has set her on a mission to be sure more lives are saved. Consider going as a family or group, or even giving a gift certificate as a gift. It's the knowledge you need to make a live-saving difference.

We offered the CPR/AED class to our staff. We had a small class, but it was very organized, informative, enjoyable and productive. Debbie, our instructor, was amazing. I greatly appreciated good communication and concise information. All who took the class feel confident in performing CPR or the AED, if ever needed. Great class and I would highly recommend CPR it works! read more

Debbie and Al are amazing and have worked closely with our school district to help us compression train over 14,000 students. Their willingness to help us get the materials, train us as teachers, and follow up and support us has been the best. I would suggest anyone needing to have this kind of training, give Debbie and Al a call. Suzan G read more

Debbie did an amazing job teaching our class. It was fun, engaging, and very informative. I really appreciated hearing her own personal stories. Working through different scenarios was very helpful. I feel well prepared for many situations that could arise. I took a CPR class several years ago but I learned new things this time around. read more

I received a comprehensive, thorough and enjoyable training by this organization. The Medina's shared with us their horrible experience but their son's life was saved due to CPR. I believe this makes them more compelling than most when it comes to teaching and empowering their students in CPR. read more
