Hi,

I'm Chris

    I started my public safety career as an explorer with Altamonte Springs Fire Dept. I attended Seminole State College. In 2001 I completed my Emergency Medical Technician training with high honors.

I started my EMS career with Florida Hospital EMS.

During this time I also worked with Rural Metro Ambulance & Sunstar Paramedics.

While working for these EMS agencies I Attended the Central Florida Fire Academy.

Upon graduating from the Fire Academy, I Relocated to Buncombe County North Carolina to start

my fire service career with the Swannanoa Fire Department.

It was there that I rose through the ranks from Fire fighter to apparatus operator. While at Swannanoa Fire I achieved certifications in Rescue 3 Swift Water Rescue, VMR, Driver Operator, EMT Basic and AHA BLS Instructor.

     In 2015 I relocated back to Florida.

Upon relocating to FL, I started working for AMR ambulance. It is there that I ended up specializing

in working with Neonatal & Pediatric care.

While working with AMR I continued to show compassion for Teaching CPR & educating the community in which I lived & served in.

     In March of 2015 Certified CPR Services was formed. Our motto is "We are teaching one to save another"

I currently serve for the North Okaloosa Fire District in the Air Rescue & Fire Fighting Division. I enjoy traveling and teaching cpr throughout the community.

I am very thankful to my parents, who have instilled in me to always give back to the community & be

thankful for what you have.

Hi,

I'm Nancy

   Welcome to Certified CPR Services. We appreciate the opportunity to share our background with you. Both Chris and I have extensive histories in teaching CPR and using it! I was a 19+ year paramedic in a high volume dual response system and still maintain my certificate. In addition, I am also a Registered Nurse. Currently I am working in the mental health field where I get the opportunity to help my patients have a meaningful life in their own home. In my "former" life I was a nationally certified dental assistant and also a middle school teacher. 

I earned my paramedic certificate from Daytona State College back when it was a community college. My ADN is from Asheville Buncombe Community College and my Bachelor's Degree (Nursing) is from Lees-McRae College in Banner Elk, North Carolina. I have completed a MSN from Queens University in Charlotte, North Carolina with an emphasis in Clinical Nurse Leadership. I am also certified as a Nurse Care Manager.

Teaching is one of my passions and I enjoy sharing my skills with anyone who has a desire to learn. Please contact us if you have questions about our curriculum or need a specialized class for your specific setting. Also know that the American Heart Association does mandate that classes must have at least four participants in it. If you don't have the minimum number of four sometimes we can combine students from different settings to achieve the minimum number. 

Thanks for reading our site and please let us know how we can assist you in your CPR training needs!
