When it is your opportunity to save a life, will you be ready? The pre-hospital medical care provided by the Woodstock Fire/Rescue District and local health systems is outstanding; but we need your help! The American Heart Association states that only one-third of sudden cardiac arrest victims receive bystander cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and a strong majority of Americans do not even know what an automated external defibrillator (AED) is.

​

The Woodstock Fire/Rescue District teaches American Heart Association CPR classes for the community, businesses and healthcare providers. In each class, our professional, experienced instructors teach when and how to perform CPR, why it is important, and how to use an AED. Remember that sudden cardiac arrest can happen to anyone, anywhere.
