CPR Club

The CPR Club promotes leadership, health education and community service through ongoing activities. The club is currently composed of first and second year students in the cardiovascular and respiratory care programs. During the first year, all students become CPR instructors. Our club has over 80 members all available for CPR courses on campus and in the community on a volunteer basis. We make a difference not only in CPR skill completion, but also in leading a positive, healthy lifestyle. We hold classes annually for over 500 college students, community members and medical personnel. The CPR Club sponsors Respiratory Care Week each October and Heart Month activities each February. The club also has the basketball hoop toss each year as part of Halloween family night, holds food drives during finals week and supports professional workshops. We find ourselves getting involved wherever we are needed.  Currently, nine Allied Health instructors have successfully completed the requirements to be CPR instructors also.
