What is a CPR Certification?
A CPR certification is a credential that qualifies the holder to perform a life-saving procedure on someone who cannot breathe on their own due to a near-drowning incident, suffocation or a cardiac event. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation involves the use of rescue ventilation and chest compressions.
Certified individuals often use the procedure in hospitals and other medical settings, but they can also use it in public if necessary.
