Truman SAAC shows support for National SAAC-Sponsored Cardiac Health Initiative
 
Truman SAAC members joined in the National SAAC program and were trained in CPR and AED skills at their meeting on Wednesday, February 15. There is compelling research from this public health program that proper CPR/AED training can save the life of someone who is in cardiac arrest.  Twenty-four members of SAAC were trained by Liz Jorn (FAR) and Jana Arabas, Faculty Instructors for the American Heart Association.   SAAC members were taught skills such as how to do proper chest compressions and use an AED-students were also educated about the NEMO Heart Health program that provides awareness of the importance of heart health and AED education throughout Northeast Missouri.
