Click Here for More Information Red Cross Sets CPR, AED Classes Designated by the U.S. Congress last December, June 1-7 marks the first National CPR and AED (automated external defibrillator) Awareness Week. The goal is to encourage states, cities and towns to establish organized programs to provide training and increase public access to AEDs. More than 300,000 people each year suffer from sudden cardiac arrest. To increase the chances of survival, at least one person in each household should be trained in CPR and the use of an AED. Organizations and companies, depending on size, should have many, if not all, employees and volunteers trained. In less time than you think, American Red Cross training will provide the vital knowledge and skills for everyone to respond to a lifethreatening situation with confidence. June CPR/AED classes offered by the American Red Cross in Greater New York (ARC/GNY) will be held in each borough. Class dates and times are subject to change. Class costs reflect online registration. For phone reservations, add $10 per class. For more information and to register, call 1-800-514-5103, or visit www.nyredcross. org.
