I am of the opinion that everyone should know how to provide basic, effective life-saving techniques like CPR. While becoming CPR certified can seem restrictive to some (because of cost, time commitment, scheduling conflicts, etc.), the University of Washington Medical School has been gracious enough to offer a free web-based CPR education service.
They have ... CPR Demos for Infants, Children, Adults, and even Pets!
They have ... CPR Videos of their Demos
They have ... iPhone and Android apps for your smart phone! Put an icon on your phone's homescreen -- encourage your friends and family to do the same.
Thanks, UOW!
