About Me

Hi, I’m Brad Scarpino—an Air Force medic, EMT instructor, and the founder of Scarpino Life Support Training.

I’ve spent my career teaching lifesaving skills to both military and civilian students, and I’ve seen firsthand how overwhelming CPR courses and EMT school can feel. Fast-paced classes, dense material, and high-stakes testing often leave students stressed, frustrated, or doubting themselves. My goal is simple: make the material make sense and help you walk into testing confident and prepared.

I specialize in hands-on CPR/BLS training that results in American Red Cross (ARC) certification, as well as practical EMT tutoring for students preparing for exams, skills testing, and the NREMT. I work with students one-on-one and in small groups, focusing on understanding, repetition, and applying concepts the way they are actually tested—not just memorizing slides or protocols.

My teaching style is straightforward, supportive, and performance-focused. I break complex topics into clear, usable steps, explain the “why” behind the skills, and help students build confidence through practice and problem-solving. Whether you are struggling with a specific topic or just want to sharpen your skills, my sessions are designed to meet you where you are and help you move forward.

If you are here to earn your certification, pass your exams, or feel more confident in your lifesaving abilities, you are in the right place.
