A wonderful place to learn.
will goddyn
Trained in standard first aid and cpr with Rajeev, would 100% recommend coming here for training. Rajeev too the time to make sure everyone fully understood each part of the course.
Jason Furlong
Knowledge instructor great course.
Faduma Hassan
The staff was super helpful, and the session was both informative and engaging. We had Azra, who was supportive, welcoming of questions, and made the session fun and lighthearted while also giving us plenty of hands-on practice. I will definitely be back in three years to renew my First Aid & CPR.
Fatemeh
It was great class with amazing teacher. Thank you.
Inna Kyrychenko
The training with Rajeev was beyond incredible! As a healthcare professional who has taken CPR courses many, many times, I can confidently say that I have never had everything explained so thoroughly and so beautifully, he is truly talented in making even the most complicated concepts easy to understand. The pace was excellent, Rajeev filled the course with top notch information, and had a great sense of humour to top it all off. I think I’ve maybe written one other Google review in my lifetime, and I would give a million stars to this one if I could! Thank you!
Elsa Romao
Hassan is the best at teaching First Aid...he is fun and educational and very practical!

Trishty Yadav
I recently completed CPR/AED training with Instructor Rajeev Khanna, and I couldn't be more impressed with the experience. From the moment the class began, Rajeev created an engaging and supportive learning environment that made the potentially overwhelming topic of CPR feel approachable and manageable.

Rajeev's teaching style is clear, concise, and highly interactive. He broke down complex concepts into easy-to-understand steps, ensuring that every participant felt comfortable with the material. What stood out most was his ability to balance theory with hands-on practice. He demonstrated the proper techniques with precision and then gave us plenty of time to practice, offering personalized feedback and encouragement throughout.

What truly set Rajeev apart was his passion for teaching and his genuine concern for each student's learning. He took the time to answer all questions thoroughly, and his approachability made it easy to ask even the most basic questions without feeling intimidated. His expertise and experience were evident, and I felt confident in my ability to apply what I learned in real-life situations.

Overall, Rajeev made the CPR/AED training both educational and enjoyable. I left the class feeling well-prepared and empowered to act in an emergency. I highly recommend Rajeev Khanna as an instructor for anyone looking to learn CPR/AED or any first aid training. His professionalism, teaching skills, and dedication to his students' success are second to none.

CPR class durations vary by type. Adult CPR/AED takes 2 hours 25 minutes online and 1 hour 25 minutes in-class, or 2 hours 15 minutes in-class only. Pediatric CPR/AED requires 1 hour 35 minutes online and 1 hour 15 minutes in-class, or 1 hour 30 minutes in-class only. The Adult and Pediatric CPR/AED course is 2 hours 25 minutes online and 2 hours 10 minutes in-class, or 3 hours 45 minutes in-class only. All courses require full attendance, a 75% score on the multiple-choice test, and result in a 2-year valid certification.

You can find reputable CPR certification courses at Coast2Coast First Aid and Safety in both Los Angeles and Long Beach, California. These facilities offer state-of-the-art equipment and are staffed by highly experienced instructors who provide high-quality training for CPR certification.

The different types of CPR certifications available include Adult CPR/AED, which focuses on CPR and AED use for adults; Pediatric CPR/AED, designed for CPR and AED use on infants and children; and Adult and Pediatric CPR/AED, a comprehensive course that covers CPR and AED use for both adults and children. Each course is tailored to specific age groups and scenarios, providing targeted training for various needs.

To get your CPR certification, you need to complete a CPR training course from a reputable provider. You can choose from various course options, including Adult CPR/AED, Pediatric CPR/AED, or Adult and Pediatric CPR/AED, depending on your needs. The training typically involves both online learning and in-person skills sessions. Once you complete the course, you’ll need to attend all sessions and pass a multiple-choice test with a score of at least 75%. Afterward, you will receive a certificate that is valid for 2 years. Courses are available through certified training centers, such as Coast2Coast First Aid and Safety in Los Angeles and Long Beach, California.

The best way to learn CPR is through a hands-on, instructor-led course at Coast2Coast First Aid and Safety. We offer a combination of online blended learning and in-person skills sessions, allowing you to learn the theory online at your own pace and then practice CPR techniques in a practical, in-class environment. With experienced instructors and state-of-the-art equipment, Coast2Coast provides high-quality training to ensure you are fully prepared to respond in an emergency.

The time required to get a BLS certification (Basic Life Support) depends on the course format. The BLS courses, led by our instructors, typically take 4 to 5 hours to complete, providing sufficient time to learn the latest techniques and information. If you opt for a blended learning BLS course, it involves approximately 1 to 2 hours of online learning followed by a 2 to 3-hour in-person skills session. This flexible format allows you to complete most of the learning at your own pace before participating in the hands-on portion.

The main difference between CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) and BLS (Basic Life Support) certification is the scope of training. CPR certification focuses on performing life-saving chest compressions and rescue breathing for victims of cardiac arrest, primarily for adults. It teaches how to use an AED (Automated External Defibrillator) for adults.

BLS certification, on the other hand, covers a broader range of skills, including CPR for adults, infants, and children, as well as advanced techniques for healthcare professionals. BLS includes additional training on handling more complex situations, such as airway management and how to assist with choking or respiratory emergencies. BLS certification is often required for healthcare providers, while CPR certification is suitable for the general public.
