Read what one of our graduates had to say! "I signed up for R.E.A.C.T. class hoping to learn basic skills in First Aid and CPR But I left with vastly more knowledge than I considered possible in only a 3 hour course I learned how to handle burns, cuts and where to place a tourniquet. I learned what to do if a person is suffering from heat stroke, which may be a likely scenario living in a desert state like AZ. I learned the importance of administering CPR until EMS help arrives and how to use an AED machine by simply following the step by step instruction built into the unit. Not only was the video material both fun and educational but the additional input offered by the trainer, Roger, was invaluable. He has a calm method of teaching coupled with years of experience that inspired me to have confidence when facing an emergency situation. I can’t speak highly enough of this course, especially when the benefits received was at such a reasonable cost great value!" ~ Gidget Rader See more

Masks, depending on type, filter out the majority of viral particles, but not all. We first discuss the near-century-old literature around the viral inoculum and severity of disease (conceptualized as the LD50 or lethal dose of the virus).
