American Red Cross Offers Discounts On CPR/AED Training

Get 20 percent off American Red Cross life-saving courses through January.

Tis' the season for special holiday offers on American Red Cross courses and products.

This information was provided by the American Red Cross regarding discounts they are now offering through January.

Each year, nearly 4 million people learn how to save a life in American Red Cross First Aid and CPR/AED training classes. People on Florida's west coast can take advantage of special offers now through January 31, 2013.

"Emergencies occur every day, but with travel, extra stress and large
gatherings, people are even more susceptible to accidents and illnesses during
the holidays," said Linda Carbone, CEO of Florida's West Coast Region and the
Tampa Bay Chapter. "Make sure your family and household members have the
skills and confidence to act in an emergency until help arrives."



First Aid and CPR/AED Training
People can save 20 percent on the price of a First Aid and CPR/AED course.
Participants learn how to perform CPR and use an AED, what to do if someone is
choking, and how to prevent and respond to other emergencies. How to control
bleeding as well as how to care for seizures and other sudden illnesses are
also covered.

Red Cross First Aid and CPR/AED training helps meet OSHA standards and
professional licensure requirements. Courses are offered in traditional
classroom and blended learning formats. Blending learning is a combination of
online learning and a shorter in-person skills session. The course fee
includes a 2-year certification with online skill refreshers and digital
materials.

People can call 1-800-REDCROSS or go to redcross.org/takeaclass for course
schedules and to register. Use HOLIDAY0113 as the coupon code to receive the
20 percent discount.
