Having a skill that could save a life is one worth having. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a lifesaving technique useful in many emergencies. Some of these emergencies can include a heart attack or someone who almost drowns which both of these situations involves the heart to possibly stop. If you were trained and certified in this skill you could help save a life. It could be the life of a relative, friend, or innocent bystander. Emergencies are unpredictable and can happen at any place at any time. There are classes designed to teach and certify individuals with these skills and I would encourage you to consider certification. You can learn more about how to become CPR certified in your community by contacting the local Red Cross or the American Heart Association. You can get training in infant, child, and adult CPR. Also, you can learn how to use an AED (Automated external defibrillator) machine. An AED machine is used when someone experiences sudden cardiac arrest. In other words, we will need to use an AED machine when someone’s heart stops. This machine isn’t very hard to use and it is a device that will walk you through each step needed in order to successfully operate the machine. We cannot put a price on having a skill that could save a life. Please consider getting certification in CPR/AED today!
