Free CPR and Stop The Bleed Courses for Summer Safety

Free CPR and Stop The Bleed Courses for Summer Safety

By Michael A. Villafranco

PORT ST. LUCIE, FL, April 24, 2018 – Emergency Medical Consultants (EMC) will once again be providing free CPR and Stop The Bleed training for parents, grandparents, and anyone else interested in learning these life- saving skills. EMC has provided these courses free of charge each year as summer approaches and children are more likely to be in areas requiring adult supervision.

The program was started after the company’s owner, a recently retired Fire Captain and Paramedic, witnessed 13 children drown and not survive largely in part due to bystanders and family not knowing CPR. This is the 23rd year EMC has provided the CPR program free of charge and 2nd year Stop The Bleed is available as well.

CPR participants will learn and practice skills for children who choke, stop breathing, or suffer cardiac arrest from any cause. Those who attend Stop The Bleed will learn the techniques necessary to stop bleeding from situations such as a shooting or car accident.
This American Heart Association CPR for Family & Friends and Stop The Bleed courses each take about 2 hours and will be presented on:

May 28th – 5pm – 7pm

Lawnwood Regional Medical Center 1700 S 23rd St – Fort Pierce
