National EMS Week

SAVE A LIFE - Learn CPR Day
Wednesday May 22
Let’s be frank and honest. When it is a heart attack the fastest response is not always 9-1-1. It’s the bystander. Do you have a plan if you witness someone that becomes unconscious, is not breathing, or choking? That is not a great time for on-the-job training. Save-a-life day empowers the general public to learn and apply steps that can be taken to help save a life.

We’re Putting the Power to Save Lives in Your Hands.
In honor of National EMS Week, ECSI, Emergency Care & Safety Institute, is providing FREE access to their CPR and AED online training course. In this course you will learn how to react in the situation mentioned above. A small investment of your time will be well worth it if you can save-a-life.

This is what you will learn from this Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation course.
You will learn CPR which covers how to react and the differences between treating adult, pediatric or infant patients. You will learn when and how to use an AED. We probably all have heard about the Heimlich maneuver, but would you know what to do if a conscious choking patient became unconscious?

The Topics Will Include:
  • How to identify sudden cardiac arrest,
  • Understanding the links in the chain of survival;
  • The qualities of high performance CPR;
  • The importance of personal safety and standard precautions;
  • The steps to assess an unresponsive person;
  • How to use an AED on an adult, child, or infant;
  • How to place an unresponsive but breathing person in the recovery position;
  • How to recognize and provide treatment for a choking adult, child, or infant.

Learn about the rewards of helping others
With more than 40 years as a volunteer EMT, it's hard to imagine myself not responding to a call for help.  It has become a way of life for me - and a very rewarding one.
Take a moment to learn about the rewards of helping others....
