As a nurse, I understand how busy our schedules get. That’s why Coastal Heart Safety works around your schedule.

We offer concierge CPR
& safety training to North County, San Diego

Coastal Heart Safety exists to provide professional, high-quality CPR and safety education while actively expanding access to lifesaving skills within underserved communities.

Every paid class directly supports free CPR training for teens and aspiring healthcare professionals in communities with limited access to education and resources, allowing clients to contribute meaningfully to community safety, opportunity, and workforce readiness.

  • Nurse-led classes providing a calm, professional approach to CPR and safety education, delivering high-quality instruction for healthcare professionals, families, and community groups throughout North County San Diego and San Diego County.

  • Small-group sessions brought to you, scheduled around your availability, and held in a calm, non-clinical setting that makes learning feel easy.

  • Funded by client registrations, the Zoë Program delivers free CPR and safety training to teens and aspiring healthcare professionals in underserved communities, creating real pathways to healthcare and caregiving opportunities.

Our Impact: The Zoë Program

Giving back to the community Zoë loved, one class at a time.

Zoë was an advocate who cared deeply about her community and the people in it. The Zoë Program was created in her memory to carry that forward, by bringing CPR and safety training to teens and aspiring healthcare professionals from underserved communities across San Diego County.

Funded entirely through booked classes, every you take helps expand access to life-saving skills.
