CPR Programs - The Fire Department offers four different levels of CPR certification. The program requires a group with a minimum of 6 or more persons to sign up. There is no individual training. Persons seeking CPR training should contact the Department at 708-748-5129 for additional information. In a cooperative effort with the Matteson Library we also offer a take home CPR program. This learn on your own program does not lead to certification, however, it provides training for those who may not be able to attend more traditional classes.
