CPR Classes

CPR Classes

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is an easy and effective way to improve someone's outcome in cardiac arrest. As our way of serving UF and the greater Gainesville community, First Responder Gators offers CPR classes and First Aid classes multiple times throughout the semester. Many of our FRG members are AHA-certified CPR instructors, meaning that we can offer classes through our club at a more affordable price.
