This past Saturday, au pairs from the Annapolis cluster met for hands on training provided by the American Red Cross.\u00a0 The Annapolis Evangelical Lutheran Church graciously offered their space for this event.\u00a0 The au pairs received instruction on First Aid and CPR.\u00a0 With the help of dolls these young ladies were able to put into practice what was taught during the 5 1\/2 hour course.\u00a0 This program was designed to teach the participants how to recognize and respond appropriately to infant and pediatric emergencies such as cardiac arrest, recognize the signals of a breathing emergency, how to care for a child that is chocking, identify the signals of shock, and how to check a conscious person for life-threatening and non-life threatening conditions.\u00a0 This class provided participants with the knowledge and skills needed to know how to give immediate care to a suddenly injured or ill child until more advanced medical personnel arrive and take over.\u00a0\u00a0 All participants received a certificate of training upon the completion of this class.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
