Peninsula CPR
Who Are We?
Our Mission
At Peninsula CPR, our mission is to deliver fast, high-quality CPR and first aid training that empowers teams, strengthens workplace safety, and supports healthier communities. Through our hybrid approach—combining flexible online learning with hands-on, on-site skills sessions—we ensure every individual is confident, competent, and prepared to make a difference when it matters most.
Extraordinary Experiences
Empowering Teams, Saving Lives
At Peninsula CPR, extraordinary experiences are more than training sessions—they are moments that transform your team’s confidence and capability. Every course is designed to equip individuals with the skills and knowledge to act decisively in critical situations, turning everyday employees into potential lifesavers.
A Mission-Driven Approach
Our hybrid model reflects how we do business: efficient, high-quality, and focused on real-world impact. Your team completes online knowledge training at their own pace, then participates in hands-on, on-site skills sessions led by experienced instructors. By combining flexibility with immersive practice, we ensure learning is effective, engaging, and immediately applicable.
Preparedness That Matters
Life doesn’t wait for the perfect moment, and neither should your team’s readiness. Each certified individual carries the ability to make a tangible difference—whether it’s responding to a sudden cardiac event, a workplace injury, or a community emergency. This is why our training matters: it empowers people to act with confidence when seconds count.
Strengthening Community Through Action
Every team we train strengthens the fabric of their workplace and the wider community. The knowledge and skills gained ripple outward, creating safer, more prepared environments where people can trust that help is close at hand. With Peninsula CPR, certification is not just a requirement—it’s a commitment to care, responsibility, and saving lives.
Our Standard: Extraordinary
We believe that every individual trained is a potential lifesaver, and every team certified is a community made stronger. Extraordinary experiences are our standard, because at Peninsula CPR, we are driven by the difference proper training can make when it truly matters.
INSTRUCTOR SPOTLIGHT: GARRETT STEPHENSON
Growing up on the Kitsap Peninsula instilled in Garrett a profound dedication to community health and resilience. After earning his Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Washington Tacoma and working alongside PhD mentors on groundbreaking research into Realtime medical diagnostics, he channeled his passion into emergency medicine by completing a rigorous two-year EMT-Paramedic program.
In 2012, Garrett honed his disaster-response skills at the International ALERT Academy in Northeast Texas, partnering with Samaritan’s Purse to deliver critical aid amid tornado, wildfire, and hurricane relief efforts. In 2015 he travelled to rural Uganda, where he collaborated with local clinicians to establish a foundational clinic and provided first-aid care to dozens of residents each day. These experiences cemented his resolve to leverage medical training as a force for lasting community impact.
Upon returning to Washington, Garrett founded Peninsula CPR, a company devoted to Emergency Health and Wellness certification for small businesses and medical clinics across the state. Under his leadership, Peninsula CPR has equipped these organizations with life-saving skills and protocols, strengthening preparedness and confidence at the neighborhood level.
Today, Garrett remains unwavering in his commitment to “Our Community, Our Health,” focusing on hands-on patient care and practical training to uplift the well-being of his fellow Washingtonians. Through targeted outreach and compassionate service, he ensures that every small business and clinic he partners with has the knowledge and resources needed to thrive.
