The City of West Hollywood is inviting community members to participate in a free American Red Cross certification training for CPR, First Aid, and AED on October 5, 2024, at the West Hollywood Park Aquatic and Recreation Center. Participants can select between a morning session from 9 a. m. to 12 p. m.

or an afternoon session from 1 p. m. to 4 p. m. Before attending, individuals must complete a 2.

5-hour online learning course, with in-person sessions lasting 1. 5 to 2 hours for practical testing and review. Limited parking is available at the West Hollywood Park Five-Story parking structure, and those who miss out on enrollment can join a waitlist by contacting the city. The initiative highlights the importance of being prepared for emergencies, as timely assistance can significantly increase a victim's chances of survival. Every year, countless lives are affected by injuries due to inadequate responses, underscoring the value of training community members.

The City of West Hollywood plans to offer more certification training opportunities in the future. For further inquiries, community members can reach out via email or phone.
