Today we would like to specially recognize our AHA CPR, Stop the Bleed and Narcan Instructors at Peekskill VAC. Currently we have 11 CPR Instructors within our ranks. CPR instructors must teach four classes every two years and take a written test to receive their recertification. That is on top of their 72 hours of CMEs they must obtain every three years to remain EMTs!
Over the past roughly 5-6 years we have been holding CPR classes for the public on the first Thursday of every month. Since we began this campaign we have instructed over 120 CPR Classes and certified nearly 1,100 Community members! These instructors also teach all of our new members CPR that need it. As always, we encourage community members to sign up for a CPR class cause you can make a difference!
If you are interested please go to our website, www.pcvac.org and click the CPR tab to RSVP your spot! June's class still has some room left, please do not wait!
Thank you to all of our Instructors for helping educate the community in CPR, Bleeding control and Narcan and making a difference! You all Rock!!
