EFR Class complete
15. September 2011 by MarkN.
September 3rd at the Kenosha Public Library STARS staff and students got together to complete Emergency First Response Primary (CPR and AED) and Secondary (First Aid) training. With props, AEDs and mannequins assembled from several sources (thanks to all who helped bring gear) we used two very comfortable conference rooms at the Library.
A big change from previous years protocols was the incorporation of more emphasis on chest compressions. Compressions are started earlier, done at a slightly faster rate and depth. It is now also acceptable to include provisions for performing hands only CPR.
Ismael, Cedric, Stephanie, Maurice, Javier, Nicole and Phil completed the training.
Congratulations to ALL!
Mark Niewoehner
