Eric Forst (owner/instructor) is a medical Speech-Language Pathologist, Rehabilitation Director, and Certified Dementia Practitioner with over 14 years of experience in various medical settings.

As a father of two young kids, Eric believes everyone should learn CPR in order to potentially save a life.

Mark Angeles (owner/instructor) is a Physical Therapist Assistant with over 10 years of experience in the medical world. He views CPR as a crucial skill beyond just a work requirement. Mark always says, "Even if I do this for 30 years, and just one of my trainees saves a life - it will all be worth it." His energetic and fun approach makes CPR training effective. Mark is fluent in both English and Tagalog.

As a complete novice to CPR course, the online training was intimidating so after completing it (full disclosure - I took twice as long as the expected time!), I was dreading the practical. But Eric was a complete professional, keeping the hands-on training efficient and interesting, providing helpful tips, and boosting my confidence in my new skills. Highly recommend!

Had a great experience with Tri-City CPR! Scheduling was super easy and they were able to come to my business and get my staff trained. Everyone learned a lot and had fun at the same time! Thank you!

Mark and Eric were absolutely wonderful to work with. I was able to quickly and easily set up a training with Eric, who also answered my zillion questions with kindness and professionalism. I also loved that I was able to set up at my office instead of having to travel an hour away. Mark was an excellent trainer, he kept our attention and made the training fun. I had CPR training elsewhere before, and the experience was terrible so I was nervous how it would go this time, but I will work with Mark and Eric every time in future!! Highly recommended Tri-City CPR for any initial or renewal CPR training!
