District electricians
rescue teammate
|
A team of district workers were able to save the life of a coworker by applying the CPR training they received at Brevard Public Schools several years ago.
Over the summer, several BPS electricians were working at University Park Elementary when one of the workers, Dave Batby, collapsed. Two of his colleagues, Chris Robertson and Noel Cinco, discovered Batby didn’t have a pulse and began CPR while their supervisor, George Cook, called 911. According to the hospital physician, Batby survived due to his teammates’ quick response. To ensure all Plant Operations and Maintenance staff are just as prepared, Environmental Health and Safety staff are leading AED/CPR-First Aid Training and Certification sessions.
