To celebrate the opening of our new upcoming chapter in Monmouth County, and to encourage the community to act in the event of a medical emergency, HAMES will be hosting two free CPR classes to a select group of teenagers of both Manalapan and Marlboro, NJ!
Let's us know you're coming by emailing us your full name and date of birth, its that easy!
As described by the American Heart Association, " Cardiac arrest - an electrical malfunction in the heart that causes an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia) and disrupts the flow of blood to the brain, lungs and other organs - is a leading cause of death. Each year, more than 350,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur in the United States."
With high-quality bystander CPR, you can double, or even triple a victim's chance of survival.
ONLY 10 SEATS AVAILABLE. RSVP TODAY

February 13th, 2017 from 6 - 8:30pm
