CPR Saves Lives

Nothing is more exciting for us than hearing stories of how our customers have used their training to save a family member, friend, customer, coworker or stranger.  With CPR week upon us, we like to recognize those efforts that our customers have told us about over the past year.

“Excellent class.  I recommend it to everyone.  Mike is an ideal instructor.  His experience from both perspectives is unique.  Saving and being saved by CPR, gives his message a great deal of power.   Very well done.     I’m now officially ready to begin my new career with the Keystone Ski Patrol.  Thanks Mike...” - Blake Wright, October 2018

Blake took a Heartsaver First Aid/AED/CPR class with us this past October 2018 as preparation for a new position as Ski Patrol in Colorado.  He left a great review complimenting his instructor Michael immediately following his class which we always appreciate...but the really exciting part came weeks later.  In March 2019, Blake reached back out to us to relay the following story:

"Mike I want to thank you for the passion you put into your CPR training. Just 1 day after turning red as a ski Patroller, I was called to the scene of a heart attack patient with cpr in progress. When I arrived I took over chest compressions and our ALS provider started placing an airway. We shocked the patient 7 times and after nearly 20 minutes unresponsive,the heart started. We skied them down and loaded on a helicopter and the patient lived after a 5 way bypass. They attributed patients survival to immediate high quality compressions which were initiated before I arrived by a nurse who was riding with patient. Thanks to your excellent instruction I was confident and prepared for the task. Thank you. It’s one of the highlights of my life. Very cool.” - Blake Wright, March 2019 

We are so honored that Blake chose Heartland CPR for his training needs but even more grateful that he took the time to share with us his experience using his training to assist in saving a life.  This is what it's all about and why we do what we do, with passion, day in and day out.  To commemorate Blake's assistance in the saving of a life, we are sending him a "Heartsaver Hero" pin and certificate to display this achievement.  

Take a CPR class, renew your skills, download the PulsePoint app, or take the next step to save someone's life!  That someone could be your family member or friend, customer or colleague, or even a stranger...they're all equally appreciative when they get a second chance at life and you could play a part in that.  Happy CPR Week!
