CRP class this morning

It has been quite some time since I have thought about or for that matter even taken a course in CPR, forgeting how important or even life saving it can be. This morning I participated in a CPR class here in DC that only took 22 minutes and reminded me how important it is to know how to perform this valuable method on someone who is sufficating or dying. Thank goodness the American Heart Association is here to remind us of how and what we can do to help others in need. I really enjoyed the class and the folks kind enough to volunteer.

CPR Before Breakfast

That's right, the new CPR Anywhere program was so quick to learn that we did it before breakfast at the AHA Heart on the Hill Event. That got me thinking- if we can do it that fast and easy why not install a teaching station in our University Recreation Center. With the new Laerdal Mini Anne the logistics are very easy to set up and tear down. Good stuff.
