February 21st, 2009-MERS receives Re-Certification on Advanced 1st Aid

Updated at May 20, 2009 09:42

On February 21st, 2009, MERS received re-certification on Advanced First Aid with CPR & AED through The American Heart Association. MERS feels that it is very important to keep this up to date for many reasons. Although in our over 100 Rescue/Trainings, MERS has never had a member get injured, but  we do recognize that what we do on rescues can be inherently dangerous without the proper training and rescue equipment. In addition, all of our members feel that having this training can be very helpful to have in our every day lives to help others.

 

MERS would like to thank our Trainer Warren Westrup for his very professional approach to this class, for his valuable time that he donated for our training, and to the Cintas Corporation (www.cintas.com), who did this class/ re-certification pro bono.
