Bend FD offers free CPR classes

A heart attack or cardiac arrest can happen any time and anywhere. Because of improved Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and community involvement, survival rates are rising every year.

You can help save a life by learning and being willing to perform CPR!

The Bend Fire Department is offering a free one-hour CPR class on the first Wednesday of every month, 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. at the Bend Fire Training Center, 63377 Jamison Street, behind the Fire Station.

This class is taught by an experienced Bend Fire volunteer, and BFD firefighters will also be on hand to assist and answer questions.

To sign up,call the Bend Fire Department at 541-322-6300.

Community response to a cardiac event is the first link in the Chain of Survival. You can do your part to make Central Oregon a safer and healthier place to live! Give us a call today and sign up for our CPR class!
