If you're like many people, you have a first aid kit at home, in your car, and maybe even with your hiking/camping gear or your desk at work – but you might not know quite how to use it. When you sign up for a first aid class in Louisiana from the American Red Cross, we'll teach you how to use what's (probably) already in your kit, and help you decide what you need to add to it. With expert instruction on caring for adults and children suffering from burns, bleeding, choking, breathing problems and other emergencies, you can be prepared to help – no matter where you are.

Get first aid training in Louisiana that's designed for your schedule – and your learning style. At the Red Cross, you'll not only gain the latest science-based information on delivering care, but you'll also have the option to earn your certification in three ways. We offer day, evening and weekend in-person classes, as well as online-only courses, and blended Simulation Learning classes that combine online coursework with an in-person skills session. This way, no matter how busy your schedule is or how you learn best, you can study first aid with the experts and be ready to help when it's needed most.

Note: Only the in-person and Simulation Learning courses are OSHA compliant.

Even completing your first aid training in Louisiana, if you don't use your skills regularly, they're easy to lose. That's why we've created the Red Cross Refresher Center – a place where you can go to take interactive quizzes, play games, participate in learning activities and watch videos that will help you maintain the knowledge and skills you learned during class. They're free and easy to use – and accessing them every three months can help you stay prepared to help – even months after completing your certification.

Whether you're a new parent, have young children or teens, or are a grandparent, understanding how to provide care to all of the kids in your life is critical. That's why, at the American Red Cross, we offer adult and pediatric first aid training in Louisiana. By combining both adult care and pediatric techniques into our classes, we make it easy to learn how to help anyone – regardless of age – when they need it most.

Note: Some first aid classes focus specifically on delivering care to adults. If you're interested in receiving pediatric first aid training in Louisiana look for a class that includes "pediatric" in the title.

When you train with the American Red Cross, keeping track of your First Aid certification in Louisiana is simple. With Red Cross Digital Certificates, you'll get anytime, online access to all of your certificates, plus the power to print, share, and download them whenever you need to. You can even provide your current or potential employer, or a volunteer organization, with a QR code that allows them to easily confirm that your certificate is valid.
