EXCELLENT Based on 63 reviews Posted on Google angela gonzalezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience with PALS! The online portion was easy to follow, and the material was well organized and made sense. The in-person portion was stress-free and had a very easy-going environment. The instructor was great—very helpful and did an excellent job explaining different scenarios and making sure everything was easy to understand. Overall, a great experience and I would definitely recommend this class!Posted on Google Maleena LuckadooTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Brandon did an amazing job with our ACLS class. He made it so easy to understand, giving us little “tricks” and “sayings” to remember what to do in hi intensity situations. I would highly recommend him and his team!Posted on Google Ashley BauerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The CPR training is great and it's awesome that their instructors are all in the field working so they can share "real" experience. Highly suggest the program!

Brandon was great - I entered the class feeling anxious and apprehensive about the subject manner, but he teaches in a matter-of-fact way that quells any panic about the prospect of an emergency arising. He made it all feel much simpler than I thought it would be. I also appreciated how he was gracious about the fact that I was 20 minutes late, and caught me up with the rest of the class.Posted on Thumbtack![]()

Yes. Onsite training is most of what we do. We bring the manikins, AED trainers and all course materials to your building anywhere in West Michigan, so your team never leaves the site. Group classes start at six people.
We are based in Ada, just east of Grand Rapids, and we travel across West Michigan: Grand Rapids, Holland, Zeeland, Grandville, Hudsonville, Wyoming, Kentwood, Rockford, Grand Haven, Muskegon, Kalamazoo, Ionia, Lansing and Big Rapids. We will travel farther for a fee, so ask.
BLS CPR for healthcare providers, CPR and AED certification, CPR with First Aid, bloodborne pathogens, ACLS and PALS. We also run hands-on fire extinguisher training for workplaces.
Two years. We keep a record of when your team certified and can remind you before the cards expire, so nobody lapses without noticing.
Working firefighters and paramedics who use these skills on real calls, not classroom-only instructors. That is the whole reason the company exists.
Six is the usual minimum for a group class at your location. If you are an individual rather than a business, get in touch and we will fit you into a scheduled class.
Yes. We sell and service defibrillators from every major manufacturer, supply replacement pads and batteries, and track your expiration dates for you so your unit is ready when it is needed.
Pads typically expire after about two years and batteries last roughly two to four years depending on the model. The unit itself has a service life of around eight to ten years. Most expired AEDs are expired because nobody was watching the dates.
Yes. LifeSaver CPR Training is locally owned and operated out of Ada, Michigan, has been in business over ten years, and is five-star rated on Google. You are dealing with people who live here, not a national booking service.
Fill in the form on this page with your organisation, how many people need training and roughly when you need it, and we will come back with dates and a quote.
