City of South Lake Tahoe Lifeguards Larry Phippen and Liz Terzian will be providing training to participants with the knowledge and skills to prevent, recognize, and respond to aquatic emergencies.
Participants will be trained and certified to provide care for breathing and cardiac emergencies, injuries, and sudden illness until EMS (emergency services) take over. Upon successful completion, participants will receive the American Red Cross Certificate for Lifeguarding/First Aid/CPR/AED, which is valid for two years.
Attendance at all facility sessions and completion of all online lessons are two of a number of requirements necessary to successfully pass for certification.
