Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Training

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Training Research indicates once the heart stops beating unexpectedly or when blood flow stops, a person will lose consciousness within 15 seconds. In that time, a critical incident can quickly turn into a deadly one. This is because time is of the essence when treating a cardiac arrest victim.

North Miami employees took part in training provided by a certified Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) instructor to better assist in times of need.
