Are you ready for an emergency?

If someone stops breathing or suffers a serious injury: TIME IS CRITICAL. Anything you can do to prepare for the worst could save a loved one. Without oxygen brain damage can start in just 4 minutes. CPR and knowledge of how to do some basic first aid can help in many situations.

Lansing Fire's goal is to have medical response to your home in under four minutes. Many places in the country are well above that. Here are a few links to find local resourses. You can find a place to learn basic first aid, babysitter preparedness, CPR or formal training in emergency medicine.
