Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is a life-saving technique that helps to save lives in the case of sudden cardiac arrest. When a person is having a heart attack that prevents enough blood circulation to provide oxygen to the brain and other organs, CPR can help temporarily provide that blood flow. CPR consists of simple techniques that anyone can learn. The American Heart Association has developed many teaching aids, books and courses to accomplish this.
The International Heart Institute of Montana is a training center for these courses. A variety of courses are offered on a regular basis. For information about the courses, or to register, please call 406-329-5613.
