Our Office and Classroom

Our Office

Located in the Roosevelt Glen Corporate Center in the West Burbs of Chicago, our office has access to many expressways and major roads, making finding your way to our office easy.  We are located at the inteerssection of Roosevelt Road and Nicholl Way behind the CVS Pharmacy annd Panera Bread. Plenty of free parking surrounding our building allows easy access into our building.  With lots of shopping and dining opportunities in our area you will not be disappointed.

We offer nearly every class the American Heart Association has to offer. If there is a class you do not see, we will find a way to offer it to you.

Our building is accessible on the south side, with an elevator in the entryway and stairs to take to the second floor where you can find our classroom.

Our Classroom

Our spacious classroom accommodates up to 16 students. If you are interested in reserving an entire class for an event, we can accommodate more students with enough planning and notice. Absolute CPR provides enough equipment for each student to practice with, eliminating the need for taking turns and reducing the class time waiting for and watching others practice. This also helps prevent contact with other students and makes for a more hygienic environment for everybody.

Please be sure to wear comfortable clothes when attending a class that requires you to practice skills, especially CPR. Moving around, getting up and down, and performing CPR can be strenuous. Wearing something comfortable will be helpful. Depending on the time of the year, a light jacket can help keep you warm and allow you to take it off if you become too warm.

What people are saying…

  • When I found out that Chicago CPR Now is back open in the suburbs, I registered for a class. These guys are awesome. They teach the best class. They offer a wealth of information and techniques for performing CPR, so you should have no questions. But if you do, they will answer any questions you have. They are passionate about CPR and can talk about CPR all day.

  • I work on a busy pediatric and NICU floor and needed to retake my Pediatric Advanced Life Support class, and missed the class my hospital had. I am glad I found Absolute CPR, I was able to get into one of their classes and did not miss any work. I enjoyed this class more than I did taking it at the hospital. Great instructors. They know what they are talking about!

    -- Desiree A.

  • I took advantage of the BLS ACLS and PALS package option, glad I did. These instructors rock! After taking BLS I was unsure how ACLS was going to be, I was glad to see my BLS instructor was one of the instructors.  After ACLS I was looking forward to PALS something I never thought I would say. Absolute CPR made these classes enjoyable compared to the classes at my hospital. I will use Absolute CPR from now on.
