H15-1: Family & Friends CPR

Accidents can happen anytime and anywhere. Right when you least expect it and probably at the worst possible time. Without someone with proper knowledge in giving immediate medical attention or CPR, lives could be lost. Between four and six minutes after the heart stops beating, brain death occurs. CPR helps keep oxygenated blood flowing to the brain and other crucial organs until normal heart rhythm is restored. This is the core reason why investing your time in CPR training is extremely beneficial. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation, better known as CPR, should be everyone's base emergency training. This course will teach lifesaving skills of adult hands-only CPR. Participants are taught in a dynamic group environment using the American Heart Association's research-proven practice-while-watching technique, which provides students with the most hands-on CPR practice time possible. The instructor will take time to answer all questions and inquiries with consideration of the time available.
