Syracuse University Ambulance (SUA) is pleased to offer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training for students, faculty and staff. The next available class will be held on Thursday, Nov. 7, from 5 to 7:30 p.m. in 020 Lyman Hall.
This training will be the American Heart Association’s (AHA) Basic Life Support-Health Care Provider (BLS-HCP) class, which will review adult, child and infant CPR, including automated external defibrillator (AED) usage. Members of the campus community that complete the training will be CPR certified at the BLS-HCP level for the next two years.
“In this class, you will review and gain the knowledge of the five links of the AHA chain of survival. With this knowledge, you will be ready to recognize and assist in the event of a cardiac emergency either on or off campus,” says Paul Smyth, manager of emergency medical services with Health and Wellness Services at the Barnes Center at The Arch.
The course fee is $50 per person, which includes the certification and a pocket mask. Attendees can pay by check or interdepartmental order. Please bring a form of payment to the class.
