SAVE A LIFE, LEARN CPR

Take a CPR & First Aid Class

Did You Know that...

About 80 percent of all out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur in private residential settings, so being trained to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can mean the difference between life and death for a loved one. Effective bystander CPR, provided immediately after cardiac arrest, can double a victim's chance of survival.

If you are interested in learning CPR and how to use an AED, please visit our course page or contact our Injury Prevention Officer, via email or by calling 360-378-5152, for details on upcoming classes.

AEDs Locations

Our goal is to have an AED unit within 3 minutes of every resident of our EMS District. We currently have over 50 AED units deployed throughout the County in ambulances, EMTs cars, Deputy vehicles, fire engines, community buildings, resorts and in homes of citizens willing to respond to their neighbor's cry for help.
