| On Saturday, November 1st, 2014 several members of the Westwood Fire Company completed training and became certified as CPR and First Aid Instructors. This course was organized by Assistant EMS Chief Morris in an effort to expand our ability to offer Basic First Aid and CPR education opportunities to the community.
The Instructor Development Class was brought to Westwood by Instructor Tim Brown of the Manheim Township Ambulance Association in Lancaster County. The course consisted of Instructor Methodology, as well as an overview of the associated programs and operations of the American Safety and Health Institute. The class concluded with the Instructor Candidates teaching a segment back to the other students as a practice on the methods learned.
We would like to thank Tim Brown and the Manheim Township Ambulance Association for bringing this class to Westwood for us. Congratulations to our candidates for the successful completion of the course!
Keep an eye on westwoodfire.com for future community training opportunities. |
