Compass CPR and Safety Solutions, LLC, is driven by a commitment to strengthening community safety through practical, life-saving training. We partner with local businesses and organizations to deliver CPR, AED, and First Aid training that builds confidence, supports compliance, and prepares teams to respond effectively in emergencies.

Founded by registered nurse Karen Ketchie, the company is grounded in real-world experience and a service-centered approach. Karen’s leadership reflects a belief in equipping others with the skills needed to act decisively and responsibly when it matters most.

Prior to establishing Compass CPR and Safety Solutions, Karen served in roles focused on crisis management and operational leadership, contributing to response efforts across a range of emergencies, including hurricanes, wildfires, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Her work has supported both local and international response initiatives, with ongoing involvement on a federal Incident Management Team and deployments with organizations such as Samaritan’s Purse and Team Rubicon.

This experience informs every training delivered—ensuring it is practical, relevant, and rooted in real-world application.

Karen resides in the Murray Hill community of Jacksonville, Florida, where Compass CPR continues to serve businesses and organizations throughout Northeast Florida.
