Why We’re Different

A Tater Of A Different Flavor
Our courses are informational yet fast-paced. We provide each student with their own practice dummy in order to provide the most hands-on practice time. We believe people need to feel comfortable to relax and actually learn. We don’t teach to the test, we teach for the students. Our instructors are the company owners and take pride in providing high-quality and engaging instruction.
About The Taters
Haley Mckee and Mita Coker are the Resusci-Taters to the rescue!
We are a local, women-owned and operated business started in Western North Carolina in 2023. Together, Haley and Mita have a combined 25 years of teaching experience and are passionate about teaching in a unique and engaging way.
Our goal is for you and your group to be laughing and learning the whole way through our fast paced and engaging CPR & First Aid classes. We build in plenty of practice time and time for questions so you get exactly what you need out of our classes.
We are both avid whitewater kayakers and bring our enthusiasm for adventure and all the mishaps it can bring to the classroom.
We are a lot of things, but dull isn’t one of them!
