What is a CPR trainer?

CPR trainers are professionals who teach individuals and groups how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and use automated external defibrillators (AEDs). They provide instruction on proper techniques for chest compressions, rescue breathing, and emergency response. CPR trainers often work for organizations like the American Heart Association or Red Cross, and may offer classes to healthcare providers, teachers, or the general public. Their goal is to equip people with life-saving skills to respond effectively in emergencies.
