Welcome to the “shocking” new world of manual defib

A HCP (Health Care Provider) BLS class will be held on Saturday, Oct 23, 0800 at the HEC house across the street from PMCH. This class meets your yearly CPR requirement. The class size has to be limited to 12 students due to the space available. Those that have already signed up will get first opportunity to go. There is a charge for this class of $7.00 per person. It is being taught by some of these new instructors; Rachelle Mills, Barb Cartwright, Alex Dennis, Rich Robinson, and Joe Pittelkow.
Please remember; all SCSA volunteers are required to complete the NIMS 100a and 700a classes (this is a state and federal requirement for all ambulance and rescue personal). If you have completed these classes but have not sent a copy of the class completion to the ambulance office please do so. The classes are available on-line for further information contact the ambulance office. If you would like to be on the FEMA/AMR Disaster Deployment Team from SCSA you need to have the NIMS 100, 200, 700 & 800 completed.
If you are in need of additional CE credit hours you can check out DVDs from our EMS Live @ Nite library in the ambulance office. These are for extra CE credit hours only, not for scheduled OTEP modules. Contact Julie for access to the DVDs.
Thank you for volunteering with your local EMS agencies,
Bill Beusan,
Coordinator, SCSA
