The Henry and Stark County Health Department is pleased to announce they
will now be offering Monthly CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation)
Certification Classes. The Department will offer both a Medical CPR Class
and a Non-Medical CPR Class.
Sandy Sommer, RN, Health Department Director of Clinical Services,
states, "CPR training will teach participants to recognize and care for
breathing and cardiac emergencies in infants, children, and adults.
Instruction will also be given on how to recognize emergencies and take
action, and understanding the role of AEDs (Automated External
Defibrillators) in the Cardiac Chain of Survival."
The Medical CPR Classes will be held the 3rd Tuesday of each month, and
the Non-Medical Class will be held the 4th Wednesday of each month. The
classes will run from 4:30pm to 8:30pm. The cost of the Medical Class is
$30 and the cost of the Non-Medical Class is $20.
These rates are per participant. There is a set participant "minimum"
and "maximum" for each class; so anyone interested should contact the
