Spots still open for First Aid/CPR/AED/BLS training classes
Summer is a great time to do advance preparation for the upcoming academic year, and if you haven’t been trained in basic first aid, CPR or AED (automated external defibrillator), now is the time to sign up! Basic Life Support classes for health professionals are also scheduled during the summer months and are required for nursing, physical therapy and PsyD students. These are the already-scheduled classes that still have openings:
- First Aid/CPR/AED: July 15 and 16 (seven spots)
- BLS: Aug. 10 (three spots)
Sign-up and payment is done online on this security services page. If these dates do not work for you, please contact Mark Stone at mstone@georgefox.edu or 503-554-2090 to discuss scheduling other dates. Classes are limited to eight and must have a minimum of four people to be held.
Learning these important skills can help you save a life! Just last weekend, citizens helped save two people from drowning in the Portland metro area using their CPR skills.
