Keep the Beat



 
 

Capital Region "Keep the Beat” CPR Training Event Set

 

 

QUESTION: If you needed to perform CPR, would you be prepared for the task?  What about the people closest to you, would they know what to do?

 

ANSWER: You will if you attend the Capital Region "Keep the Beat” Free Bystander CPR Training*

Participants ages 10 and up will learn life-saving adult CPR through hands-on skills training, as well as how to recognize and provide basic care for breathing and cardiac emergencies.

 

AED CONTEST: The school with the highest percentage of students attending will win an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) for their school, a $2500 value.

 

WHEN: Saturday, April 17

 

TIME:  Either 8 a.m., OR 10 a.m.

 

WHERE: First Baptist Church, Family Life Center, 4200 Main Street, in Zachary.

 

WHY: The statistics are bleak. Only 1 in 20 people know CPR, yet cardiovascular disease is the top killer in the country claiming 2,400 lives each day. About 95% of sudden cardiac arrest victims die before they reach the hospital. Brain death starts to occur within four to six minutes. Bystander CPR helps maintain vital blood flow to the brain until defibrillation can be administered.

 

"Keep the Beat” is a not-for-profit education initiative to make Louisiana communities safer by teaching life-saving CPR skills and donating AEDs to schools.
