February 2013 Classes
 

BAY CITY, MI, January 16, 2013 -- Each year, nearly 5 million people learn how to prepare themselves, their households and their businesses for emergencies.

The American Red Cross in Arenac, Bay, Huron and Tuscola Counties is offering the following courses where people can join the ranks of those ready and prepared to save a life! Listed below are our course offerings for February.

The First Aid and CPR/AED courses teach people how to perform CPR and use an AED (automated external defibrillator), what to do if someone is choking, and how to prevent and respond to other emergencies until advanced medical help arrives. Course participants also learn how to control bleeding as well as how to care for seizures and other sudden illnesses.

Babysitter's Training will give 11-15 year-olds the skills and confidence to safely and responsibly care for children and infants.
