Have You Ever Taken a CPR Course? by Lou Haskins

This blog discusses being healthy in America today

CPR - cardio pulmonary resuscitation, the first treatment for a person who has collapsed and is not breathing and/or has no pulse. It consists of  an external cardiac massage and artificial respiration.

You can use  this lifesaving skill any where, any time without any equipment help.
A lot of things have changed, so even if you had it years ago, you need a refresher.
And, for those who have never learned this simple skill, pray that someone you love never needs CPR while you are helplessly standing by.

The guilt can be overwhelming!


  Make sure you get a course that actually has you practice on a simulated 
 person!
 Reading about it is not enough if you find yourself in this high-stress situation.














Having CPR skills is something you'll NEVER regret!
