Empowering everyday people to save lives

-

In the United States alone, 1,000 people suffer from cardiac arrest each day. Of these cases, only 10% of victims survive. Cardiac arrest is currently the leading cause of death in our country, and it can happen to anyone, anywhere To help save lives, more and more organizations are encouraging employees and students to receive CPR training.

When administered properly, CPR and AED shock can quadruple a person's chances of surviving cardiac arrest. If applied quickly, CPR and AED can also prevent dangerous brain damage that can prolong recovery time, allowing them to move forward with a healthy life. Bottom line--the more citizens who can safely perform CPR, the more lives we can save. That's why the Safe Citizens Project (SCP) offers group CPR and first aid training to schools, businesses, and anyone hoping to make their community a safer place.

Why Teach CPR and First Aid In Schools?


Our training offers students many benefits that will prepare them for emergencies and guide them toward successful careers and lives. Emergencies can be scary for teens and young adults. When they're prepared with the knowledge of how to help during an emergency, it can help them remain calm and clear-headed to help the victim faster.

Our programs also provide students with useful information about potential career paths. They may be empowered to become a first responder, saving lives for future generations. Students preparing for a healthcare career may also find our programs helpful in gaining credits toward electives or graduation. Furthermore, learning about the factors that lead to cardiac arrest can also encourage students to lead healthy lives through good eating habits, exercise, and cardiac illness screenings.


Why Teach CPR and First Aid At Work?

When employees feel safe, they can work better. When your business offers CPR and first aid training to your employees, it can help build a strong sense of trust and community in your workplace, boosting employees' confidence and teambuilding skills. Further, employees who know their employer cares about their well-being will feel supported and valued at work.

CPR and first aid training can also benefit your organization. If an emergency occurs during work, having employees who can administer life-saving actions can save your company thousands of dollars in potential insurance and hospital costs. Our trainings also meet federal regulations for many professions. Whether you're teaching your employees for the first time or simply renewing your teams' CPR certifications after two years, SCP can help you gain the knowledge you need.
