This class is aimed to provide families with information and skills to start the treatment process until a higher level of help arrives. Students will be able to determine if the scene is safe before entering the danger zone and learn how to properly identify and check for gross bleeding that can possibly be life-threatening if not treated. If we are willing to carry a firearm to take a life to protect ourselves, we need to be willing to learn how to save a life as well.
The purpose of the American Red Cross First Aid/CPR/AED program is to help participants recognize and respond appropriately to cardiac, breathing and first aid emergencies.
