How to get CPR and or first aid certification,etc?

Question

I live in NJ and am in High School. I would like to be certified in CPR and First Aid and ANYTHING ELSE I CAN. How would I go about doing this? Again, beside first aid and CPR is there anything else that I can be certified in? Lastly, I do NOT want to be an EMT at all, I want to become a surgeon, but that is beside the point so just answer my question please.

Answer 1

Redcross is great for cerifications.

Answer 2

You may want to contact your local EMS/ Ambulance service. (Some towns don't have a Red Cross.) They may have CPR and First Aid classes. Good Luck!

Answer 3

Besides Red Cross and local EMTs, hospitals usually offer some sort of CPR/First Aid courses.

Answer 4

The local Red Cross is your best bet.
