LCEMS Initiates Community CPR Program For 2008

Beginning in February 2008, Laurens County EMS will be offering FREE community CPR to the citizens of Laurens County in an attempt to strengthen its heart healthy initiatives. The program focuses on CPR and response to choking, gives information on AHA's adult and pediatric chain of survival, and helps participants:

recognize signs of choking in infants and children
recognize signs of heart attack, cardiac arrest, stroke, and choking in adults

reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and prevent the most common fatal injuries to infants and children

The classes will be offered at the Emergency Operations Center from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM on the dates listed below and will be instructed by employees of Laurens County EMS. Anyone who is interested can contact Capt. Chad Burrell at 864-984-1574 or email him at cburrell@co.laurens.sc.us to register or if you need more information. All participants must be registered within two weeks of the scheduled date.

Dates:

February 2nd, April 5th, June 7th, August 2nd, October 4th, and December 6th

Location:
