I urge everyone to get their CPR certification. The new CPR that is taught by the American Red Cross is the easiest one ever. The procedures are defined very specifically and the use of the Automatic Electric Defibrillation Units are remarkable.
After years of having CPR certification requirements for my job in aquatics, I never had to use it. Now that I'm in arts management it's no longer required. I am pleased that I have continued to re-certify anyway.
Yesterday morning, I had to perform CPR on a man who collapsed. I got word from the hospital that he is alive in stable condition today. I had the assistance of someone else who was able to provide breaths while I did chest compressions.
Please, get your CPR and first aid certifications. www.redcross.org
