The American Red Cross of Greater New York provides a free certified CPR course that teaches participants to recognize and care for a variety of first aid emergencies such as burns, cuts, scrapes, sudden illnesses, head/neck/back injuries, heat & cold emergencies and how to respond to breathing and cardiac emergencies to help victims of any age. Participants must attend the entire course (one day session, 5hr 45 min. or two day session, 3 hours each) to receive a certificate for Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED valid for two years. Arrival entry up to 15 minutes after class has started is permitted. However, if participants arrive later than 15 minutes, then they will need to reschedule. Space is limited to 12 participants; pre-registration is required. Call or come to the Reference Desk at the Library. This program is funded by New York State Senator Toby Ann Stavisky.
