The Family & Friends CPR Anytime Personal Learning Program allows families, friends and the general public, who most likely would not attend a traditional CPR course, to learn the core skills of CPR in 22 minutes using their own personal kit. CPR Anytime uses a "practice while watching" instructional method. Users practice CPR on a personal, inflatable manikin while watching these skills being taught and performed on a DVD. The kit contains everything needed to learn basic CPR, and skills can be learned anywhere, from the comfort of a family home to a large community group setting. CPR Anytime and Infant CPR Anytime kits are designed to be shared with close family and friends, strengthening the chain of survival in your community. The cost of the program will be $50 and will include both the "Friends and Family" and "Infant" CPR Anytime kits, which are yours to keep after the class. The class will be given on Tuesday September 14th from 8:30-10pm, light refreshments will be served. The Deadline for signup is August 25th. Once you sign up a kit will be ordered. For more information and to reserve a spot, please feel free to contact Aryeh Simmonds via email at aryeh4@yahoo.com If you are interested in sponsoring please contact Jonny Shore at jonnys_1971@yahoo.com **This class does not provide a course completion card**
