Hello, my name is Chris Schlesinger, the owner of In Home CPR. Since 2010 our CPR instructors have been traveling to San Mateo County homes and businesses to teach CPR, First Aid, BLS, and ACLS certification classes, as well as custom pediatric classes for new and expecting parents. We can now come to your Bay Area or Sacramento location, too!

ASHI Certification Classes:

• CPR AED
• First Aid
• First Aid CPR AED

American Red Cross Certification Classes:

• Pediatric First Aid CPR AED

American Heart Association Certification Classes:

• BLS Provider CPR (also called BLS for Healthcare Providers)
• ACLS
• Bloodborne Pathogens

We also offer non-certification classes for new and expecting parents.

There are two ways to take a certification class with us:

• The entire class can be taught at your workplace or home by our instructors.
• Everyone in your group can do part of the class online ahead of time, then our instructors will come to your location for the hands-on practice portion of the course, called a “skills session”.

The same certification is awarded for both approaches.

Whether you are an individual wanting a private class or you have 100 employees to train we can make that happen!

There is no minimum number of students needed to set up a class with us. We do many small classes for people who want the opportunity to ask lots of questions and get plenty of one-on-one time with their instructor.

We can also do classes for large groups. Whether it’s your school staff, sports team, skilled nursing facility employees, or your entire company, we can bring the equipment and additional instructors needed to make your big class happen.

Our company philosophy is that CPR training should be interactive and engaging. Whether this is a CPR renewal class or your group is new to CPR classes and first aid training, we always want everyone in your group to leave feeling confident they can respond to a medical emergency.

Unfortunately, we have had to close our Redwood City classroom. Thank you to the thousands of students over the years who took classes with us!

​

Our CPR Essentials Class is designed for new and expecting parents who want an infant First Aid & CPR class, but don’t need a CPR certification. It’s an interactive class in which questions are encouraged. 

Because this isn’t a certification class, the content is flexible. Ask our instructors about any pediatric topic on your mind!  Our typical infant-focused class covers strategies for calling 911 in a medical emergency, choking, CPR, seizures, allergic reactions, poisoning, drowning, bleeding, burns.

Our ASHI (American Safety & Health Institute) classes meet OSHA’s First Aid and CPR AED certification requirements for Construction, Electrical, Landscaping, Plumbing, HVAC.

Ask us about what certification you need. Typically, foremen are required to have First Aid & CPR AED certifications. Some industries only require First Aid. Your insurance company will likely let you know which certification you need.

Most of In Home CPR’s instructors are EMTs and Paramedics are currently or previously were first responders for 911 calls. We take the time to get to know you and learn what are the most common injuries on your job site and will put extra emphasis on the topics during your class. Our instructing style is interactive and questions are encouraged.

Our goal is that your staff can respond as a team if you ever have a job site medical emergency.

Dental professionals are required to have a CPR certification for healthcare professionals. We teach the American Heart Association BLS for Healthcare Providers CPR certification class because it meets the CPR requirements of county dental societies.

It doesn’t matter if you have a small dental practice with just a few staff members — we instructor classes for any size office.

Licensed childcare facilities are heavily regulated so we know the certifications you need! We offer the American Red Cross Pediatric First Aid CPR AED class.  This certification meets the First Aid & CPR requirements of the EMSA (Emergency Medical Services Authority) — the California government agency that regulates licensed childcare facilities.

Even if you have just a couple of teachers, we can come to your school. There is no minimum number of students needed to schedule a class with us.

Licensed Physical and Occupation Therapists are required to have a CPR certification for healthcare professionals. That is why we offer the American Heart Association BLS for Healthcare Providers CPR certification class — it is the preferred CPR certification for Physical and Occupations Therapists in California.

If you have an out-patient surgical facility your staff is required to have an American Heart Association BLS for Healthcare Providers CPR certification. This class covers CPR, how to use an AED and will help your staff to respond as a team if they ever encounter a medical emergency.

If you work in healthcare you are likely required to have a BLS Provider CPR certification — the CPR certification for healthcare professionals. If you work in a California clinic or hospital you are required to have an American Heart Association BLS for Healthcare Providers CPR certification class. You can do the entire BLS certification course with our instructor or your staff can do part of the course online ahead of time, followed by a short skills practice session with our instructor.

Here is a list of healthcare professionals required to have a BLS certification:

• RN
• EMT
• Paramedic
• Dentist
• Dental Assistant
• Dental Hygienist
• LVN
• CNA
• Medical Assistant
• Phlebotomist
• Pharmacist
• Occupational Therapist
