Caregivers, teachers, risk managers, safety leaders, educators, scout leaders, lifeguards, and coaches must step up to address Preventable Death and Severe Injury to our youth and families. See our recent December and November Webinars.

Our Public Safety Net has never been more stressed, and our Public Health Education programs can’t keep up with the threats.

In this webinar, you will be provided with the latest concepts, tools, and resources to address emergencies:

  • Opioid Overdose Poisoning: These are claiming almost 300 Americans a day. Counterfeit medications laced with fentanyl, vaping, and THC overdoses are threatening our youth and workforce.
  • Major Trauma: Everyone needs to learn to control severe bleeding and trauma, such as provided by the Stop-the-Bleed®. Concussion best practices are evolving. All need to know what to do.
  • CPR and AED Use: The latest guidelines need to be explained, and deliberative practice will pay off. The case for CPR/AED certification has never been stronger.
  • Choking and Drowning: A major cause of death in our young, with many deaths and harm preventable.
  • Anaphylaxis: Still a major problem requiring educators and families to prioritize best practices and availability of epinephrine injectors.
  • Infections: The current tri-demic of flu, RSV, and Covid demand that we underscore the basics.
  • Transportation Accidents: Drive-over accidents of children and bystander care at motor vehicle accidents claim way too many lives.
