Katie Roberts
A little bit about me!
Hello and thank you for considering my business! My name is Katie Roberts, CPR and First Aid Instructor and founder of Unified CPR. Outside of my business, I am a wife and a mother of two. In my off time I enjoy physical fitness and train for various triathlons. I have competed in over five Ironman triathlons, with my most recent placement landing me a spot to travel to New Zealand to compete!
Why is CPR my passion?
Emergency medical services has always been and continues to be a part of my life! Inspired by watching my father’s career in the fire service, I served as a Firefighter Paramedic for 16 years at a local fire department in Northern Lake County. Through my journey I found my passion for emergency medical services, including CPR – an extremely important life saving skill. My husband is also a career firefighter and currently serves as a Battalion Chief for a department in Lake County.
My Professional Background
During my fire service career, I responded to countless emergency calls, delivering emergency medical care in the prehospital setting. With a desire to contribute more, I joined my department's public education program where I became an adjunct instructor for a local paramedic program and a certified American Heart Association (AHA) CPR instructor, teaching and certifying community members lifesaving skills such as CPR and first aid. During this time, I also helped develop my department’s Safety Camp where we educated local youth on fire prevention and life safety, including bicycle safety and safety and awareness around trains.
How did Unified CPR form?
During the pandemic, I made the sacrifice for my family of transitioning out of the fire service to help both of our children with e-learning, which also provided an opportunity for me to focus on my business. Like many, I was faced with the restrictions in place caused by the pandemic, therefore, most of my instructing was done virtually. Once restrictions were lifted, I was excited to transition back to in-person classes, as I believe there is much more value in face-to-face interactions when training lifesaving skills. Unified CPR now teaches and certifies CPR to various entities and work groups ranging from private security to public works and medical office employees. Unified CPR is affiliated with American Heart Association offering a variety of certification course such as: ACLS, PALS, BLS, Heartsaver, and First-Aid.
