Bystander/CPR/AED Training

  • Edgewater Branch Chicago Public Library 6000 North Broadway Chicago, IL, 60660 United States (map)

Join Dr. James Ruska of Swedish Hospital to learn about the importance of “hands-only” CPR and how to respond in an emergency situation. This free training features interactive practice of “hands-only” CPR with a mannequin so individuals can understand how to properly perform chest compressions. The class will also demonstrate how to use an AED (Automated External Defibrillator).

This program is made possible through a grant from Illinois Heart Rescue and generous support from the Swedish Hospital Foundation.

Registration is required.

Please note: Bystander CPR training is not the same as CPR certification.

Held in partnership with Edgewater Village Chicago and Swedish Hospital.
