If a cardiac arrest happened to your loved one or a close friend,
would you know how to perform life-saving CPR, which can double
a victim’s chance of survival?
Surprisingly, the vast majority of Americans don't.
Did you know:
That sudden cardiac arrest is the leading cause of death in
adults. Most of these arrests occur in people with underlying
heart disease.
CPR doubles a person's chance of survival from sudden
cardiac arrest.
75% of all cardiac arrests happen in people's homes.
The typical victim of cardiac arrest is a man in his early
60's and a woman in her late 60's.
Cardiac arrest occurs twice as frequently in men compared to women.
Once a month Forest Grove Fire & Rescue offers a free "friends and family"
CPR class. This class teaches students both Adult and Child CPR.
"Trained to save committed to serve" are words we live by. By offering
people a CPR class we are providing people with the knowledge and skills
that one day may be used to save a loved one or a complete stranger's life.
Upcoming Classes: November 6th from 10am to 12:30pm. This will be the last class for the year, starting in
January classes will be held every other month.

non transferable and will not be put towards a different class date.
