Frequently Asked Questions About Portola Valley CPR Classes

Q: What is the advantage of having a CPR class at my business? Currently, we send our staff to a local classroom in Portola Valley with scheduled CPR classes.

A: Most of our instructors are EMTs and Paramedics who have years of arriving at businesses via a 911 call. It’s not uncommon for them to find the victim’s co-workers panicking, disorganized and sometimes even arguing about how to help. When company employees do not train together, they’re frequently not on the same page about how to respond. When we come to your Portola Valley business for a First Aid, CPR or BLS class, we will train your staff how to respond as a group in your office. It’s the best way to prepare your staff to provide First Aid or CPR for a coworker.

Q: A CPR class at my Portola Valley office or home? How do I schedule that?

A: Feel free to contact us with any questions you have. Since most people only do First Aid and CPR certification classes every two years, it can be difficult to remember the name of the class you need and which organization’s certification is required for your business in Portola Valley. Just ask us. Part of our job is to know the CPR and First Aid certification requirements for different industries. We are familiar with OSHA, county dental societies, healthcare provider CPR requirements and the EMSA.

Q: Do your First Aid certification classes meet OSHA’s First Aid & CPR certification requirements for Portola Valley?

A: Yes, we instruct ASHI and American Red Cross First Aid classes in Portola Valley because OSHA accepts those certifications to fulfill its First Aid and CPR certification requirements.

Q: Which professions are required to get a Portola Valley BLS certification – the CPR certification for healthcare professionals?

A: First off, always ask us if you’re not sure which certification you or your staff is required to have. We know CPR certification job requirements. These professions are required to have a BLS certification in Portola Valley: RN, CNA, Medical Assistant, Dentist, Dental Hygienist, Physical Therapist, Occupational Therapist, Respiratory Therapist, Medical Technician, EMT, Paramedic. There are other professions that need a BLS certification, so feel free to ask us.

A: There is no minimum number of people needed to schedule an infant CPR class with us. Your baby can be present during class, too. We’re available seven days a week to come to you, including evenings. All of our instructors are medical professionals such as Paramedics and EMTs.

A: We will make sure you’re getting the correct First Aid certification class for your daycare or preschool. We know the EMSA’s requirements for you. We instruct American Red Cross Pediatric First Aid CPR AED certification classes in Portola Valley because it’s their preferred certification.

Q: I see you offer CPR AED certification classes for Portola Valley. What does AED mean?

A: We have all seen a person being defibrillated with paddles on TV medical shows. With advances in technology, now everybody can use a defibrillator called an AED – Automated External Defibrillator. When the AED is turned on it talks the user through what to do. Instead of paddles, sticky pads are applied to the victim’s chest and then the AED analyzes the victim to determine if they need a shock to get their heart beating normally. They are surprisingly easy to use and widely available for the public to use in airports, malls, gyms and sports stadiums. For our CPR AED classes in Portola Valley, we bring practice AEDs so you will be prepared to use one if needed.

Q: What backgrounds do your instructors have? What is their teaching style?

A: All of In Home CPR’s instructors are medical professionals. Most are EMTs, RNs, Paramedics or medical students. Our instructing style is interactive – questions are encouraged!  We want you to leave your Portola Valley First Aid, CPR or BLS class feeling that you had your questions answered and feel confident you can respond to a medical emergency.

Q: What is the minimum number of people needed to set up a Portola Valley CPR class at my business or home?

A: There is no minimum number of people needed to set up a First Aid, BLS or CPR class in Portola Valley with us. The more people you have, the less it will cost per person. We can handle classes of up to about 100 people.
