FOR DENTISTS, HYGIENISTS AND AUXILIARIES

Heart disease is the number one killer in the United States today. Many fatalities could be prevented with basic lifesaving techniques. This CPR and emergency medicine course provides the knowledge and skills needed to properly respond to cardiopulmonary emergencies. This program utilizes hands-on practice sessions.

Participants will learn about:
• one-rescuer and two-rescuer CPR;
• scene survey - patient assessment;
• heart attacks and strokes – signs and symptoms;
• sudden cardiac arrest / defibrillation (AEDs);
• airway obstruction – choking;
• respiratory emergencies;
• emergency drug kits and masks;
• medical histories – blood pressure;
• legal aspects – standard of care;
• anaphylactic reactions - allergic reactions; and
• angina pectoris - seizures – asthma – syncope – hypoglycemia.

RESULTS: You will gain the knowledge and hands-on experience needed to administer CPR safely
and effectively. You will receive a two-year certification card from the American Heart Association, as well as continuing education credits.

CPR is required for New York State relicensure effective January 2009.
