Instructors with the Roswell Fire Department will use curriculum from the American Heart Association's Family & Friends CPR course. This course is for individuals who want to learn CPR, but do not need a course completion card in CPR for a job. The course is ideal for teachers, students, parents, grandparents, babysitters and others interested in learning how to save a life, the city says.

The course will teach the lifesaving skills of adult hands-only CPR, child CPR with breaths, adult and child automated external defibrillator use, infant CPR and relief of choking.

Skills are taught in a group environment using hands-on techniques.

To sign up for the classes, visit the city's website.
