"I took a CPR class with LifeSavers after becoming a new parent, and I can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. The instructor was amazing — patient, knowledgeable, and so easy to learn from. They explained everything in a way that made sense, even for someone who doesn’t have a medical background. The hands-on practice really boosted my confidence. By the end of the class, I felt like I could actually stay calm and know what to do if my child or someone else ever needed help. It’s such a comforting feeling to have those skills. The class was well-organized, easy to schedule, and surprisingly fun! You can tell this company truly cares about teaching people how to save lives — it’s not just a business for them. I’ve already told several friends and family members to sign up. If you’re a parent (or honestly, anyone who loves someone), this class is a must."

"I just wanted to let you know that your class gave me the confidence and knowledge to perform CPR in a real-life situation. I was working at a high school as a nurse and was called into a bathroom because a student was on the floor. When I got there, I was really nervous but the training I received from your class kicked in. I didn't overthink what I had to do, I just thought about the steps I was taught in your class. I first tapped the student to try and get a response and then found out there was no pulse or breathing. There were a few other teachers that had come to the bathroom to check out the situation and I told one to call 911. The school did not have AEDs at the time. They have since been installed in all the schools in the district. I began CPR on the student and I am not sure how long I was going because in the moment time seems to go by very slow. Eventually the student took a huge breath of air but was still very out of it. The EMTs came and took over. It ended up being an overdose. I can honestly say that I don't think I could have handled the situation without your excellent training. The steps of what to do have been ingrained in me over the years of taking your class. Thank you for giving me the tools to help others and I am sure the student would thank you too."

"....rather than the usual rote memorization of skills, she focuses and teaches content with a friendly, non-threatening and light-hearted approach. Not only will the participants learn the skills of CPR and emergency procedures, they will leave the experience knowing, understanding and remembering the skills. Unsolicited testimonials rave about Sandra’s extraordinary style of teaching, quality of content and participants higher level of competency. Her courses are life changing and can be life saving. "

"On this past Tuesday, we had an older gentleman who was choking on some food. The staff ran to me and asked me to call 911. No guest in the dining room knew what to do. I told my staff to call 911 and I was going to see what I could do to help. As I ran towards the man I rifled through my mind exactly what I needed to do. Once I got to the man, I realizing that the man was in bad shape and signaled that he couldn't breath. I immediately started the Heimlich maneuver. After the fourth attempt, the food that was lodged in his throat popped out and the man was able to breath again. I thought you would like to hear yet another success story, thanks exclusively to you and the training you provided me this past Fall. As you may recall, each time you come in to train our staff, I always take a moment to tell my staff that once they are trained in CPR and with Heimlich that there is as close to 100% chance as possible that each of them will have an opportunity to save a persons life sometime during their life. On this past Tuesday, it was my turn to safe a life and that person is now alive because of the training you provided me. That having been said, Thank You Sandy for arming me with the ability to make a difference. Attached is the copy of the inside of the card the man and his son dropped off to me the next day. Having a person tell you that "you saved my life" is about as powerful a statement that a person can ever hear. All of the best to you Sandy. I know that there will be another calling or two in the future for me. I will once again be ready."

"Hello, I rarely ever write anything like this, but I wanted to say a HUGE thank you for the training I received in the past. In August I had a resident choke in the small facility where I currently work. I raced down the stairs to her to find her already unresponsive. I knew exactly what to do and my training took over. The resident was DNR and later there were many questions from untrained people like social workers who threatened to file a VA report against our facility-for doing CPR on a dnr resident. I remembered my training from my last class clearly and I knew I had done the right thing. Surprisingly, this resident survived! Although she did pass away on hospice, she was elderly and had heart issues and I’m amazed at what my training could do. Her family had a month with her to say goodbye. She was coherent for a great deal of that month and at times we thought she’d even pull through. It was my first time experiencing this and I want you to know that I’m so grateful for the training I received. Most nurses I’ve talked to would not have known what to do in that situation despite being cpr certified. Thank you so much!"

"Just wanted to pass along our compliments and let you know how much we enjoyed your BLS course Friday morning. It is a high quality course & your presentation style is exceptional. Your enthusiasm, energy, and good humor make the subject matter "come alive". The material is extremely well organized & very practical. Your hard work, efforts, & expertise are all very much appreciated. Thank you!"

“As a construction crew, we needed practical, real-world CPR skills. This training was hands-on, fast-paced, and even fun! Everyone on the team felt ready to act if needed.”

"I recently took a CPR class with LifeSavers and it was amazing! The instructor made everything so easy to understand and kept the class engaging from start to finish. I really appreciated how patient and encouraging they were — no question ever felt silly, and by the end, I felt completely confident that I could actually help someone in an emergency. The hands-on practice was the best part — we got plenty of time to work with the manikins and AED trainers, and the feedback was super helpful. You can tell this company truly cares about their students and the impact CPR training can have in the community. I’ve taken CPR classes before through other organizations, but this was by far the most professional, organized, and enjoyable one I’ve attended. I’ll definitely be coming back for recertification and recommending LifeSavers to friends and coworkers!"

“Even as healthcare professionals, we found this CPR training engaging and very very very thorough. Tons of hands-on practice, clear instruction, and a fun, empowering atmosphere made it stand out.”

" LifeSavers, their name says it all! They really train you to save lives. I am truly thankful for my experience with LifeSavers. LifeSavers teaches the steps of CPR in a way that is easy to follow and they challenge you to critically think."

"I took your course because I was in the nursing program at Normandale CC and needed BLS. Four days after passing my NCLEX I came upon an emergency situation in public. A woman had been hit by a car in a parking lot and was unconscious. When I arrived there was blood everywhere and a single nurse had started CPR while 911 was being called. I ran over and asked if I could help. I took over compressions when they were tired and i was needed, while waiting for EMS. As I did compressions, and counted aloud, I could hear, and feel, ribs cracking. This was very scarey, however, all I could hear in my mind was your words, “you may hear ribs cracking while doing compressions, please do not stop, this happens sometimes.” I would like to thank you for the superb training I received. Without your words in my head I may have panicked and stopped, thinking I did something wrong. Your training prepared me for saving a life and I am so happy I chose you to teach and prepare me!"

The instruction was clear, evidence-based, and delivered with a level of enthusiasm and professionalism that’s rare to find. The instructor not only demonstrated a deep understanding of the latest AHA guidelines but also had an incredible ability to connect the material to real-world application. The hands-on practice was thorough, and the feedback provided was specific and constructive — ensuring that every participant left confident in their skills. What stood out most to me was the company’s genuine passion for saving lives and empowering the community. Whether you’re a healthcare professional renewing your certification or a layperson learning CPR for the first time, LifeSavers offers top-tier training that’s both informative and inspiring.

"I can’t say enough great things about this team. From start to finish, the entire experience was professional, engaging, and genuinely empowering. The instructor made what could have been a dry topic incredibly hands-on and meaningful — you walk away not only knowing how to perform CPR but why it matters so much. The class was well-organized, easy to follow, and full of real-world examples that made everything click. They created such a comfortable learning environment where everyone felt confident asking questions and practicing the skills. You can tell they truly care about what they do and about the people they teach. I left feeling confident, capable, and even inspired — which is saying a lot for a CPR class! I’d recommend them to absolutely anyone — individuals, parents, workplaces, or organizations looking for top-notch CPR and first aid training. Saving lives starts with training like this."
