Do you know CPR?

Today I became certified in CPR. Like 99% of my classmates I was there because of a job related requirement. Only two of us were there by choice..to learn something new, potentially lifesaving. I truly must say that after learning some of the incredible facts, and seeing how easily u can make a difference, I would've done this a long time ago.

After a person is dead it takes 3-5 min for brain damage to occur. After 10 min the damage is irreversable. The avg response for EMS in toronto is 10 min. Nuff said. They cant do squat, you can. You can keep a person fully oxygenated for hours if you know what u doing, just with your breath and your hands. The human body is an amazing thing. So amazing.

Cost $100
