First Aid & CPR Classes

    High Country Fire-Rescue is committed to providing our community with life-saving knowledge and skills. HCFR Instructors are ASHI (American Safety and Health Institute) certified and draw from a lifetime of skill and knowledge. Much of our staff are trained medical professionals. Our wealth of experience allows us to bring you real-life, hands on instruction while conveying proper medical theory and practice. Our instructors have "been there-done that".

All CPR classes include instructions on the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED).

Note: Our courses may meet your needs for workplace requirements to have proof of continuing education. Contact us before attending a class to ensure the class meets your employment needs, and whether or not additional fees apply to such courses.

Additionally, we offer first aid and CPR classes for your group, both youth and adult. In some cases we can offer these courses at your home or another pre-arranged location. Feel free to contact us for fees and scheduling such classes.

Our department periodically offers joint training opportunities for volunteer staff conducted within our department, as well as at nearby departments or facilities. Again, contact us to inquire as to whether you may attend and about future offerings.
