Learn How to Save a Life.
Clark County Fire District 6 and Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center are challenging the community to become a life- saving one by seeing how many members of our community can be trained in CPR in a single evening. The training is free and open to the public of all ages. It will be held at Salmon Creek Elementary School Thursday, May 24th from 6:30-8 p.m.
About 80% of cardiac arrests occur at home, so being trained to perform CPR can mean the difference between life and death for a loved one. Effective bystander CPR, provided immediately after cardiac arrest, can double or triple a victim’s chance of survival. In just a single evening, you can learn how to save a life.
This training does not certify you in CPR/First Aid, which means you will not be issued a CPR/First Aid card, but it does teach you the skills you’ll need to save the life of person that goes into sudden cardiac arrest.
Are you up for the challenge? For more information, or to register for this FREE event, visit Clark County Fire District 6.
