Chief Neil McPherson is pleased to announce that the Wayland Fire Department will offer a free community CPR course on March 9, 9:30-11:30am at Wayland Town Hall and encourages those wishing to learn this lifesaving technique to sign up.
The course will cover CPR and Automated External Defibrillator (AED) training for adult, children and infant patients. The Department will follow curriculum set by the American Heart Association.
The course is ideal for community groups, parents, grandparents, caregivers, schools and students, and anyone interested in learning how to save a life.
“Everyone should know life-saving steps to take in emergency situations and this course will teach you those techniques. Knowing CPR could make a difference in saving a person’s life, and we encourage those interested to attend our free course to learn more about CPR and AED,” Chief McPherson said.
To sign up for the course and for more information, please email Firefighter Ian Wallace at iwallace@wayland.ma.us. This class does fill up quickly and preference will be given to Wayland residents and employees. The signup deadline is Wednesday, March 6.
