The 28 participants who recently took the recent CPR/AED training at the Riverview Community Centre live in Clyde River and surrounding communities. This website only lists those individuals who live in Clyde River. These people can be resources if any family need such emergency help. Skilled use of CPR combined with application of an AED significantly improve the chance of survival following a cardiac arrest, especially if that help is available within minutes of an emergency. Onsite, or close by, help can intervene quicker than emergency response people can answer a 911 call.
The AED is a security device for any event held at the Riverview Community Centre. As well, all those who have had the CPR/AED training will be informed of the code on the Lock Box to open the Riverview Community Centre. Inside on the wall, the easy-to-use AED can be accessed. It’s light and can be easily taken to the site where it’s required. The instructions on the AED are so easy it can even be used without the training but the best result will come with use of both CPR and the AED defibrillator.
Newly-trained people who live on the Clyde River Road include J’Nan and Kirk Brown, JoAnn MacPhail, and Kerri Lee York.
On the Trans Canada Highway, Betty Watts, George Watts, Ferne Halman, Robert MacPhail and Eric MacPhail received the training.
On the Baltic Road, Catherine Hill Waugh and Emily Bryant took the training, while the Bannockburn Road was represented by Hilda Colodey and Alex Dixon.
Carol Richards from the MeadowBank Road was also certified in CPR/AED. Glen Wigginton also took the training and he is always there for the weekly crokinole parties.
It is hoped that this message will be helpful to families who live in this area. Please remember key individuals who live close to you or keep this list in a safe location for easy access. In an emergency, you don’t have time to look for someone to call. You have to know who to call. These trained people have the potential to save your loved ones life.
