After our son, who's non verbal with autism, choked and my husband saved his life, it became very clear to me that I needed to go through CPR and First Aid training. The training was exactly what we were all looking for, comprehensive, detailed and filled with very practical hands on training. I highly recommend Snyder CPR and Safety!
