The American Red Cross has provided health and safety services to the American public for almost a century.
Health and Safety
For more than a century, the American Red Cross has been saving lives with health
and safety education programs. Red Cross training ranges from first aid, CPR and
AED to swimming and lifeguarding; from HIV/AIDS education to caregiving programs
like Babysitter’s Training. American Red Cross programs help people live safer and
healthier lives. The Red Cross constantly strives to respond to the health and safety
concerns of Americans at home, in school and in the workplace.
Today’s innovative programs also include teaching lay persons and professionals how to use automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to save victims of sudden cardiac arrest. Last year, nearly 12 million people enrolled in American Red Cross health and safety courses. You can help the Red Cross save lives.
