GO-WV and the WV Manufacturers Association are hosting a life-saving skills seminar in two locations this fall.

Are you certified in First Aid or CPR? Could you perform life-saving measures in an emergency situation? Join us for a comprehensive course taught in a dynamic, hands-on way with industry-leading curriculum developed by the National Safety Council. It’s critical to remember that in an emergency situation, every second counts! For example, someone who is not breathing can suffer brain damage in just 4 minutes, and brain death in just 8 to 10 minutes. Often, EMS can take 10 minutes or longer to arrive. That’s why it is crucial to have on-site employees trained in proper First Aid/CPR skills so they can respond quickly to help save someone’s life.

In this course, participants will learn the following life-saving skills:

How to recognize and take action in a medical emergency
How to handle breathing and cardiac emergencies
How to act appropriately and effectively and sustain life until professional help arrives
How to prevent disease transmission
How to identify and care for bleeding, sudden illness and injuries
