What Makes LaKisha Collins-Mitchell with CPR Mobile Instructors a Good Neighbor?

Emergencies don’t wait for an ambulance, and that’s exactly where this conversation begins: the critical minutes when a bystander becomes the bridge to survival. We sit down with the team at CPR Mobile Instructors, a Dallas–Fort Worth–based organization bringing CPR, first aid, AED, and Narcan training directly to schools, businesses, and community groups. The mission is simple and powerful—make lifesaving skills accessible, practical, and confidence-building so more people are prepared to act when it matters most.

We unpack the myths that often hold people back, including the belief that CPR or Narcan use is only for medical professionals. This episode explains how hands-on, on-site training replaces fear with confidence by using real-world scenarios tailored to classrooms, offices, and community spaces. We also take a closer look at Narcan—what it is, why it’s safe, and how it only works when opioids are present. In communities facing rising overdose risks, especially among teens, normalizing Narcan alongside CPR training isn’t controversial—it’s compassionate and effective.

The conversation also explores the personal story behind the company’s growth, rooted in a moment when CPR was used to save a loved one’s life. That experience sparked a “teach one, reach one” mindset that has expanded the organization’s impact across multiple states. Listeners will walk away with clear, practical steps for staying calm, calling 911, starting compressions, using an AED, and administering Narcan when needed. If you’ve ever wondered whether you could help in a crisis, this episode shows exactly how to prepare.
