Where we started

Founded December 2020

In memory of Lawrence Ayala.

Cardiox Care opened its doors in December 2020 in memory of Lawrence Ayala, a veteran who was loved by many.

Losing someone you love sharpens how you think about the minutes before help arrives. It shapes how we train, in a prepared, professional environment, so you leave genuinely ready, not just certified.

The Cardiox Care standard

What the Cardiox Care standard includes.

The official card

You leave with the official AHA, American Red Cross, or ASHI completion card your employer, school, or licensing board accepts.

Hands-on practice

A 1:1 manikin ratio where it counts, so you get real reps and individual coaching, not just a demonstration.

A clean, comfortable room

HEPA-filtered, organized classrooms with comfortable desks and Herman Miller seating, built to focus in.

Same-day eCard

We handle the prep and the paperwork and issue your eCard the same day, so you finish in a single visit.

What students notice

From the moment you walk in.

  1. 1

    A prepared room.

    Manikins set out, equipment checked, and comfortable desks and Herman Miller seating ready before you arrive, with a station for every student.

  2. 2

    Guided, hands-on practice.

    An instructor coaches you through compressions, depth, and rate in real time, so the skills are in your hands by the time you leave.

  3. 3

    The certification pathway, handled.

    We line up the prep, the paperwork, and the skills check, and issue your official eCard the same day.

Teachers, childcare and fitness professionals, construction and workplace teams, and parents and caregivers who need CPR, AED, and First Aid certification.
