American Red Cross

Offers Discount to TAP Members
 
While we can't predict when or where emergencies will happen, we can be prepared to handle them.  Employees trained in CPR, AED and first aid have the skills and confidence to respond and provide care to an injured coworker during those first critical minutes.

The Great Bay Chapter offers health and safety training programs that are hands-on and relevant to your workplace.  The courses can be offered at your facility or at the Red Cross, and fit conveniently into most workday schedules.  Day and evening scheduling is available.  To find out about different Red Cross training course options and delivery methods, visit here.
 
TAP members will receive a 15% discount for any class scheduled in August or September.  Create a safer workplace and community - schedule a CPR or first aid class today.
