CPR and First Aid Training

 
Have you ever thought about becoming trained in CPR or First Aid?

Working in the field of health and wellness, I have attended many CPR and First Aid training courses as most certify an individual for a one year time period and require recertification.  Over the years, CPR guidelines have changed multiple times.  If you were trained in CPR some time ago, please consider attending a training to ensure that you are up to date on the guidelines.  CPR and First Aid are usually required in an emergency situation where it is essential to remain calm and collected while remembering the necessary steps to help save lives.

Classes can be found at the American Red Cross or Community Education Centers in your area.
Check out: American Heart Association or Red Cross

  2. Know Health Problem: Just search online about the symptoms you or any of your concerned people is having. That will give you brief idea about what the problem is and which specialized physician you should look for. It may happen that you don't need to see doctor as the health problem can be minor enough to be treated with over the counter medicines. chick fil a diabetic options
