CPR instruction should be MANDATORY for all professional service providers
Whether you are a realtor, a lawyer, bank manager etc....lets say a client drops by to meet with you. They are sitting there talking and all the sudden the little baby turns blue. He's choking.
Do you a) hit them on the back? NO b)Call 911?
As a former CPR instructor, I know how easy it is to forget the motions when the stress is on. The good news about the story below is that even taking 1 course could save a loved one. I have recommended that ALL realtors be required to have this certificate. Whether its for you, family or a stranger (and by the way, mouth to mouth is no longer mandatory as a life saving procedure)...amazing guys like Tom at www.CPRSpecialEdition can lead you and your workplace in the right direction.
