About the Instructor
Kaitlin McCarthy RN-BSN is the owner of Boston CPR Partners and is a Neuro ICU RN at Tufts Medical Center in Boston. Kaitlin started in the medical field at the young age of 14 years old, where she was on Mount Sunapee’s Junior Ski Patrol for 3 years. She then became an EMT at 18 years old and went to UMass Amherst, where she graduated with a B.A. in Communication, with her primary focus being in business. After working in the corporate world, Kaitlin knew she needed to follow her dream of becoming a nurse. She went to nursing school and received her Associates degree in Nursing, followed by her Bachelors degree in Nursing shortly after. While in nursing school, Kaitlin spent two and a half years as a Newborn Care Specialist with Boston Baby Nurse and Nanny.
She is now in a dual Masters program for Nursing Education and Patient Care Coordination. She first began her nursing career as an ER nurse and then transitioned to the Neuro ICU. Kaitlin’s teaching style stems from her years of emergency and critical care experience. After taking many CPR classes, she knew these classes needed a change; something that was more personal and tailored to each learner. Over the past two years, Boston CPR Partners has certified over 1,000 healthcare professionals and non-medical learners in the Boston area. With special offerings such as In-Home CPR classes for new families, along with scheduled weekly classes in the Boston CPR Partners’ Stoughton training studio, Kaitlin has created a dynamic and collaborative approach to CPR training. Kaitlin’s passion is giving learners the tools they need to save a life and bringing her personal experiences as a tool for a more cohesive and interactive educational experience for all participants!
