Livingston County Health Center has
announced a CPR/AED Training on Monday, October 24th in their
classroom, located at 800 Adam Drive. Registration
is required, those interested should call the Health Center at 646-5506.
As many as 400,000 people in the US will
suffer from cardiac arrest this year. The majority of these individuals will
die before even reaching the hospital. It is fact that if more people were
trained in CPR, the amount of survivors could double or triple. Statistics show
that among the American population, 70% may not even respond during a cardiac
arrest emergency because they are uneducated and do not know how to apply the
lifesaving techniques of CPR.
The Health Center follows American Heart
Association training guidelines. This classroom-based course will train you to
be proficient in the use of CPR as well as an AED. If you need to get certified
as a workplace or school requirement, then this is most likely the course you
need to take.
Space is limited for this training. If you
are interested in learning CPR/AED use, please call 646-5506. If enough interest is shown, more classes may
be held in the future.
