The American Red Cross Hands-Only CPR course teaches untrained bystanders how to perform Hands-Only CPR. During a 30-minute skill building session, participants learn how to check for consciousness, call 9-1-1 (or the local emergency number), and give continuous chest compressions. Please note that Certification in CPR training is not provided through this course.
Having more citizen bystanders trained in this simple skill can help save lives by putting more cardiac arrest victims within a few steps of lifesaving assistance.

- Provides standardized, high-quality training to groups and individuals on how to provide Hands-Only CPR to a person whose collapse was witnessed and who is unresponsive and not breathing normally;
