Yesterday, Lance and I completed the Red Cross Adult/Child/Infant CPR and First Aid Certification. We even bought a CPR mask, in case we will need it in an emergency.
I am even toying with the idea of becoming a member of the CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) and completing the training program they offer.
I did decide we need to make sure we have a good 72 hour kit and need to store more water. You can never be too prepared in S. California!

They must have some sort of subliminal messaging going on during these Red Cross training sessions. I had similar thoughts after completely my first aid/CPR courses last fall. I wanted to take all of their classes and be the most prepared person ever (for disasters/accidents). Well...We still haven't made that 72 hour kit and I only have a few pieces in my car's first aid kit...But don't be like me! I think it would be excellent to be a CERT. Go for it!
ReplyDeleteI am sure they do have those messages. Maybe this summer I will consider taking the course. Too bad you don't live here. We could take it together. :-)
