Learning cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and other lifesaving techniques is one of the best gifts you can give your child. The goal of this class is to insure adequate instruction and practice so class members can calmly and effectively react when a baby or young child requires emergency care for breathing or choking problems. This free class is open to parents, grandparents, older siblings and baby-sitters.
The class includes a video, instruction, discussion and practice on the following subjects:
- Demonstration and practice of what to do for a choking infant and child
- Discussion of feelings families have about performing CPR on their own children
- Preparing your home for an emergency
- Step-by-step demonstration and practice of CPR on "Resusci-baby" and "Resusci-child"
