Our Story

Sacramento's Community CPR Training Center

Clinically grounded and rooted in the Sacramento community since 2019.

Woman-Owned Small Business LGBT+ Owned Business

Built by a Healthcare Provider for the Community

River City CPR was founded in 2019 with a straightforward goal: bring the same standard of lifesaving training used in Sacramento's hospitals to the people who need it most—your coworkers, parents, first responders, and neighbors in the community.

River City CPR is a woman-owned small business. We are also proudly LGBT+ owned. We operate differently from large training companies. Classes are small by design. Our instructors are working Sacramento-area healthcare providers — people who use these skills in ICUs, emergency departments, and the field.

We are proud to serve downtown Sacramento, Midtown, East Sacramento, and the surrounding region. Group and on-site training is available for clinics, businesses, schools, and organizations of any size.

Our Instructors

All River City CPR instructors are currently practicing Sacramento-area healthcare professionals.

What Sets Us Apart

Clinical Instructors Only

Every class is taught by someone who uses these skills in practice: ER Nurses, Paramedics, and Advanced Practice Providers.

Sacramento-Based

We know this city. Group training comes to your workplace, clinic, or school. No need to travel to a distant training center.

Small Classes, Real Learning

We cap enrollment intentionally. You will get hands-on practice time and real feedback, so you leave feeling confident.
