SCHOOLS' PROGRAM |
|
Support a School Today
The Healthy Heart Schools' Program reaches Grade 7 students in order to make a positive impact and offer additional life skills including bystander CPR to increase Niagara adolescents' ability to respond in case of emergency. The CPR program will link elementary school students to the chain of survival which includes paramedics, fire and police personnel, doctors, nurses, nutritionists, therapists, activity centres and smoking counsellors in the fight to protect Canadians from the devastating effects of cardiovascular disease. The training will ensure that each Grade 7 student is aware of the signs and symptoms of heart and airway emergencies and how to respond in the case of emergency.
The CPR training includes education on the positive choices that can be made by young people to ensure that they do not risk early arterial damage.
This program is delivered in collaboration with Niagara Emergency Medical Services (NEMS), with the addition of its paramedics to co-present the program in the classroom. Donate today . . . children and schools in Niagara will benefit.
