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 — coworkers, neighbors, parents, and first responders in the community.

River City CPR is a woman-owned small business. We are also proudly LGBT+ owned. We operate differently from large training places. Classes are small by design. Instruction comes from 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 traveling to a distant training center.

Small Classes, Real Learning

We cap enrollment intentionally. You will get hands-on practice time, along with real feedback, and leave feeling confident — not just certified.
