Learn About CPR and Our Defibrillator in September
|
|
Last year, we installed an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) on the rear wall of the Church. Weems Memorial Hospital has graciously agreed to offer a training session for Trinity members on performing CPR and using our AED. We would like to keep the group small to give everyone a chance to practice techniques. Our plan is to hold the training in September, but we need to get an idea of how many people are interested.
There will be a sign up sheet in Benedict Hall on Sunday, July 28. Once we have an idea of the number of people interested, we can decide how many training sessions we need to have. Please sign up and participate, so you can be ready when a medical emergency arises.
