We had a great opportunity to participate in a workplace safety event hosted by Georgia Nut Company in Skokie!
Chicago CPR Academy provided employees with hands-on demonstrations focused on the lifesaving skills that can make a difference during the first few minutes of an emergency.
โค๏ธ Hands-Only CPR โ How to recognize cardiac arrest, start high-quality chest compressions, and keep going until help arrives.
โก AED Training โ How simple AEDs are to use, why early defibrillation matters, and why having accessible AEDs in the workplace is so important.
๐ซ Choking Response โ How to recognize a choking emergency and take immediate action.
๐ฉธ Bleeding Control โ Hands-on practice using direct pressure and tourniquets to control life-threatening bleeding.
One message tied everything together:
The most important thing is to TAKE ACTION.
In an emergency, you donโt have to be a healthcare professional to make a difference. Recognizing whatโs happening, calling 911, and starting lifesaving care can give someone their best chance of survival.
A big thank you to The Georgia Nut Company for inviting us to be part of the event and for making employee safety and emergency preparedness a priority.
At Chicago CPR Academy, we bring CPR, AED, First Aid, and workplace safety training directly to businesses throughout Chicago and the surrounding suburbs.
