Join us on Wednesday, February 8 from 8:30 - 10:30 a.m., at the Little Rock Regional Chamber for our first Equip session of the year: Metropolitan Emergency Medical Service (MEMS) Small Business Training, presented by Delta Dental of Arkansas.

As the mobile healthcare provider to the community, MEMS takes responsibility of community safety very seriously. MEMS regularly conducts programs that reach into the community to help prevent and respond to medical emergencies. Sessions are taught on CPR, Stop-the-Bleed, and AED. MEMS focuses on education and training within the community to be better prepared to respond in case of emergency.

The Friends and Family CPR Program is part of our growing Community Outreach effort to teach members of our communities what to do when faced with a serious emergency. Being able and willing to immediately begin CPR when you are with someone who suffers a cardiac arrest can save their life. In fact, early CPR is a key factor in determining survival and quality of life after cardiac arrest. MEMS is offering “Friends and Family CPR” classes in an effort to improve survival chances of those we serve. This training is American Heart Association approved and sponsored. It offers education in the techniques of CPR that can be taught in a 2-hour class using mannequins. This class also includes how to use an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED). This is not a certification class. This class is low stress and is offered to anyone interested. No medical experience is necessary.

This session is free for chamber members, and $25 for non-chamber members. Coffee will be provided. Over 21 years of age only.

Session schedule:

8:30 a.m.: Check-in, networking, get settled
8:35 a.m.: Sponsor remarks

10:30 a.m.: Session ends
