Free CPR Course Offers HOPE

ASHI, the American Safety and Health Institute, has established a new, compression-only CPR course that Colorado Emergency Training Services, LLC will be offering to the Colorado community starting in 2014.

HOPE provides Hands On Practical Experience, which is CPR in a simplified form. It is a 45 minute course in chest compression-only CPR. This means that while performing CPR, mouth-to-mouth breaths are not utilized. The goal of HOPE is to provide free training to community members in order to save as many lives as possible in an emergency situation.

HOPE is targeted toward community members that are not occupationally required to be certified in CPR/AED or professional level basic life support. Participants of the course will receive a certificate of completion to document their participation, but will not receive a regular completion card.

HOPE is free, but registration for the course is required. To register, please visit our website or call (719) 645-4-CPR (4277). Because the course is free of charge, we are hoping to have a large turnout and numerous classes available for the community.
