Roswell Fire to Host Free Community CPR Classes

From The City of Roswell: Roswell Fire Department (RFD) will host two free community CPR classes at Fire Station 7 on Saturday, June 16. Participants must be at least 12 years of age and must be residents of Roswell.

Classes will be held at 9 and 11:30 a.m. and are expected to last up to two hours. Space is limited to 16 participants per class.

RFD will use the American Heart Association's Family & Friends CPR Course. This course is for individuals who want to learn CPR but do not need a course completion card in CPR for a job. The course is ideal for teachers, students, new parents, grandparents, babysitters and others interested in learning how to save a life.
The Family & Friends CPR Course teaches the lifesaving skills of adult Hands-Only™ CPR, child CPR with breaths, adult and child AED use, infant CPR and relief of choking in an adult, child or infant.
Skills are taught in a dynamic group environment by using the AHA's research-proven “practice-while-watching” technique, which provides students with the most hands-on CPR practice time possible.
Fire Station 7 is located at 8025 Holcomb Bridge Road in Alpharetta, GA. To sign up for RFD’s free community CPR classes please visit http://roswellgov.com/government/departments/fire/cpr.
