PAGE 10 | The Portlight | 02.05 EDUCATION DOCK The Education Committee continues to bring you a great slate of Saturday Sessions in 2005. Hope to see you there! 2/12 9:00 AM CPR/AED Class–Kevin Shanders, Portland Fire Bureau Portland Yacht Club has an AED. It will be carried to the Outstation or on other Cruises so that it will be available in the event of an emergency. We want to have all members trained on CPR and the AED so we can provide lifesaving aid to people suffering sudden cardiac arrest. 2/26 9:00 AM 3/05 9:00 AM 3/12 9:00 AM 1:30 PM •Why should people who are responsible for operating an AED receive CPR training? Early CPR is an integral part of providing lifesaving aid to people suffering sudden cardiac arrest. The ventilation and compression skills learned in a CPR class help to circulate oxygen-rich blood to the brain. After delivering a series of three electric shocks, the typical AED will prompt the operator to continue CPR while the device continues to analyze the patient. •If AEDs are so easy to use, why do people need formal training in how to use them? An AED operator must know how to recognize the signs of a sudden cardiac arrest, when to activate the EMS system, and how to do CPR. It's also important for operators to receive formal training on the AED model they will use so that they become familiar with the device and are able to successfully operate it in an emergency. Training also teaches the operator how to avoid potentially hazardous situations. •What kind of training on AEDs will we do? The AHA has developed a new Heartsaver AED Course that integrates CPR and AED training in a hands-on environment. The course is 3 1/2 to 4 hours long. All persons that take the class will receive a Certification Card from the American Heart Association. DIESEL SEMINAR–Dr. Diesel, aka Ted Leonardi, PYC and Dale Price, Diesel Mechanic Extraordinaire. Back by popular demand, don’t miss it! Boater Education Card Review and Test–Holt Cookingham, USPS If you plan on attending, please pick up and read the self-study materials at the club before attending so you can get the maximum from the review and pass the test. It is official! If you’re 45 or under, you now need a Boater Education Card to operate a boat greater than 10 HP in Oregon. Boaters older than 45 will be phased into the program in future years. Skippers, first mates, owners, admirals, crew and significant others should get a card now! To get your card, come to the class for a review of the available self-study materials and take the equivalency exam proctored by Holt Cookingham.
