An emergency can strike anyone.

A father who suffers a heart attack, a child who chokes and stops breathing, a colleague who collapses at work.

The Red Cross empowers people to save lives. Each American Red Cross course is taught by certified instructors and combines hands-on training, audiovisuals and instructor-led demonstrations and discussions.

See the chart for Red Cross Health and Safety training opportunities in Austin and Albert Lea.
